So much for posting weekly. I had assigned one of the other Leadership Team Members to post last week, but there were some logging-in issues that prevented that from happening. Apologies for the lack of updates.
Anyway... there are moments in my job that I wonder why in the world I signed up for this *again.* More often, though, there are the moments when I realize that every headache, every heartache, and every frustration are so worth it, and I find myself humbled that God would allow me the privilege of working with this group of staff. Last night was one of those (long) moments. We spent about an hour in corporate prayer and worship as we head into the "real" summer season here. What a blessing to listen to the earnest prayers of these teens!!! It is during times like last night that I remember why I love my job so much. :)
Despite the praise reports, we do have some prayer needs if you're up for the challenge.
-A few of our staff are starting to get sick and/or burned out. Prayers for physical health and energy are much appreciated.
-Also, there are often situations where we as a leadership team find it difficult to discern a specific course of action that will be most beneficial, so prayers for wisdom are also coveted.
-Finally, at the moment we are fairly issue-free (praise the Lord!) save for minor disturbances which happen...pray that this spirit of unity lasts as God continues to mold and shape us.
Love!
Melia
