On September 1, I was invited to be on a team with National Network of Youth Ministries to develop a national program called Communities 4 Hope. It is a program about getting churches and people to work together to help their communities and their youth.
Me? I’m still amazed. I am one of 54 people who have been part of this national research and development team. I’m still amazed and honored to serve in this way.
Len Evans, the NNYM Texas- New Mexico district coordinator invited me to be on this team. Two days ago, I realized that I was on this team due to my long time work with Baccalaureate. That I no longer do in Pearland. But I still do on campus Christian clubs and other community projects.
I am so excited. Doug Clark, the NNYM Director of Field Ministries, is picking me up at the airport and we are going to lunch together. I will have to keep myself from asking him to autograph my napkin. Or my shirt. Or my arm. Or my Bible.
Pray for me, okay. I want to help how I am able to help and learn what I need to learn. I know that there are things I have learned over the last 20 years, doing community and school ministry in Pearland that could be helpful to this national endeavor.
I am so honored by this invitation. Should I say it again: I am honored beyond words to be asked to work with this team at this time in my life. I am excited for me. But I am also so excited about what I can bring back to the Pearland community and schools.
Pray for me, okay.
