This week's newsletter from Steve

Thank you for all of your prayers and support during our Rock Week of Missions here in Austin last week! We had an amazing time together, and we were able to be involved with some great ministry here in town.

Just to give you a recap of last week’s ministry opportunities, our youth baked cookies/made thank you cards and took them to the local Army recruiting station, as well as to the firefighters at David Smith’s former fire station. They also had a car wash, in which they were able to raise nearly $500 to send to Samaritan’s Purse for disaster relief in Nepal. Then, they made 25 food/ministry kits and we took them out into the streets of Austin and distributed them to people standing beside the roads asking for help. We spent two afternoons helping renovate a new church plant, the Fellowship at Scofield Farms. We painted, landscaped, and removed a ceramic tile floor. We also prayer walked down 6th street, up Congress, and had a prayer time in front of the Capital building. Top all of that off with three amazing nights of worship and Bible study, and it made for a great week together!

Youth Camp is next week! Please be in prayer for our students and leaders as we head to Pineywoods Camp in east Texas. Please pray that God will really reveal Himself to each of us in a new and fresh way, and that hearts will be turned to His will!
