The night before......

I said goodbye to my house, close friends and Wilmore, Kentucky this morning and hit the road for an adventure that will take me through Atlanta to Denver to Cortez, Colorado this summer. Even though it was hard to say goodbye, I'm anticipating it will be a great summer as I get to serve with three college students who are on fire for the Lord. I'm looking forward to how the Lord will be working in the lives of the four of us this summer.

My prayer is that the Lord will use me in a mighty way this summer. That I will be open to what He wants from me and how He wants to work through me as the summer progresses. I pray that I will not only be a light for the youth that will be coming to Cortez, and a light for the community in which I serve, but that I will be an encouraging friend to my teammates. Please join me in these prayers.

This is my second year serving with YouthWorks, my first was in Eastern Kentucky. I will be serving as the Work Project Staff finding work for youth groups to do. The groups will be serving clients by painting houses and doing minor repair work.

You are an amazing servant of the Lord and He will be with you every step of the way. I will definitely be in prayer with and for you. Just let your little light shine, bro!

Talk to you soon!
