Life has been busy in the little town of Rexford, Kansas. Somedays it feels like there is so much to be done...that it would require two or three of each of us to even come close to accomplishing it all! Sometimes it is overwhelming...to try to discover which of the many possible paths will lead this ministry to successful service, to see so many needs that need to be met, to try to make contacts and schedule events and everything else entailed.
But it's also exciting to look to the future, to see what God will do here, through us.
This weekend is a full one. Christian Challenge came to paintball and enjoy a hot-dog roast; before they left the monthly Teens For Christ (TFC) group arrived for their Edges meeting. (Check out the Shepherd's Staff FaceBook page for pictures of both events.) These teens had burgers, fries, and milkshakes (Gwen learned that it takes about 90 minutes to make all those shakes!), then participated in their own Amazing Race, followed by worship and a speaker. We're excited to develop relationships with these kids over the coming months.
Tomorrow we'll host another Family Movie; this time it's Letters To God. This is a way for us to build relationships with the community. Then Tim will head to McCook with a vanload of guys to a conference with a special speaker on purity. Please pray that these men will hear and take to heart the message given there.
We have so much more to tell, but no more time. Thank you for praying, for reading, for being at the other end of our computer screen.
