This Week at Mission Adelante

News:

  • Bhutanese LTP (Leadership Training Project) students have begun reading through the book of Mark together. This is the first time a majority of the students have opening a bible and read it for themselves. We are excited to see what God will teach us as we read His Word together.
  • Janoy, a Cuban member of our Latino church community, preached on Sunday night at our celebration service for the second time.  It is a real privilege to walk with people as they develop their ministry gifts.
  • We are in week four of a five-week pilot English class at Laminate Works, Inc, a local business partner.  Laminate Works has provided employment for several members of the Mission Adelante community.  Thank you, Laminate Works, Inc.!
  • We are thankful to those that have given to make the LIT reward store a success! The kids received awesome rewards for working hard to improve their organizational skills, to memorize their verses, and to grow in their leadership!

Prayer needs:
  • Please pray for the Lord to give us vision and insight as we begin dreaming and planning for the fall season of programs.
  • Please pray for wisdom as we work out details of Adelante Thrift, a new thrift store in the neighborhood we are hoping to launch this summer/fall.
  • Please pray for Latino teens as they begin the application process this Monday for LTP (Leadership Training Project). We are super excited for this, the newest version of our summer internship, which will invest in the development of teens from our own neighborhood!
