Monday Night Outreach

Here we are preparing for the world premier of Beatty Ball. Monday afternoon a few members of our team put their heads together and created a new game for us to use at our outreach on Monday night. We had 25 kids from the community join us during the evening and it was an amazing time.
Here is Chris Whitaker sharing his testimony. After he finished a person in the audience asked "what is a Christian?", and Chris said that a Christian is a person who has placed their faith in Christ to be forgiven for their sins, lives their life for God's glory and wants to share the message with others. What an answer!!
A little later Zach Sterbaum gave a message on how we find true joy and fulfillment in life. His message came across loud and clear, and Zach and several other of our students had the chance to have some great follow up conversations after the message.

We will post some pictures of our 2nd day of VBS a little later today. Our students are doing a fantastic job and really serving the Lord with everything the have. We've had so many comments from people who attend Beatty Community Church about how encouraged they have been by our students and how great the need for work with young people is in Beatty. Pray that God would continue to use us to glorify Him and that lost people who come to know Jesus as Lord and savior.

Wes and team! Great stuff. I love seeing God work in such familiar ways in all of these rural communities we have been able to touch. Praise the Lord for your obedience to His Holy Spirit in sharing the Great News in our Judeas and Samarias!
Praying for great boldness tonight at your Youth Outreach, may you see individuals on your team share one-on-one with their new friends in Beatty!
Grace,
Brian Aaby

WOW!! I'm so impressed by how God is using each student. He must be smiling down at you. I will continue to pray for boldness and God's word & love to pour out from you. This mission will be fruitful, whether its seeing fruit now or planting seeds in the community to be watered and nutured by the BCC.
God bless you, Janelli Cordle
