Grow Ministry

Well you crazy Jonah supporters,


I hope you are all doing well and that you are using the opportunities God gives you to glorify, serve, and enjoy Him to the best of your abilities.


But since you are reading this blog I guess I should give you an update about what has been going on at Jonah since we last spoke. This week was pretty common yet useful. For one, our look for next summer is coming together and we are getting very pumped about how God is going to use are excitement, creativity, and hard work to glorify Himself next summer through growing staff and campers. Also, winter camps are coming together nicely as well. The closer we get to them the more I know that God is going to be using a lot of people’s dedication to make a winter camp that will be enjoyable but also challenging to every person participating. We have started fundraising for the bus barn and pray that God will use our efforts to grow our ministry and service to Him.


We also had a group here this last weekend which was great. Crossroads Church brought their Sanctuary Student Ministry Teen Leadership up for a weekend of learning, stretching and growing. These teen leaders had the opportunity to learn from their youth pastor as well as being stretched on the high ropes course, pushing them out of the comfort zone that made it hard for some but all of them grew in their courage because of this activity.


I hope this glimpse of how God is using us encourages you to be more focused on God wherever you are. Remember you ARE a missionary wherever you are and God has you there to be missional and reach others with the amazing truth of His existence and His beautiful Gospel.


Keep us in your prayers that God will grow our ministry and our focus on Him and while you are talking to Him pray that He would increase your ministry as well.


Jesus is awesome and it is all about Him, if it is not about Him what is the point,



Soka
