Our son Nathan is on a one year internship with Urban Promise, a ministry “that exists to proclaim the love of Jesus, and to express it through the spiritual, social and educational development of children, youth and families living in government housing.”
He sent me this update recently of what he is up to:
Hey Everyone!
I have moved into Toronto, and have already been through a week of Afterschool Program. I have really gained an appreciation for what Urban Promise does. It is impossible to meet these kids without immediately liking them. They definitely will teach me patience, but they are amazing nonetheless. Please pray for me as I go into week two of the program. Pretty soon I will be leading the Word UP (Bible Lesson) which is a pretty daunting task. I will be continuing to post updates here through my Dad’s Website so check back here Frequently!
Nathan S.
Godspeed Nathan.
Wow!
Continue your walk with Him.
We are starting to meet the ms/hs students in groups of 8 students next quarter. This is to meet their needs – spiritual included. Got any suggestions for me? Resources? What’s the WordUp like? I am grasping at this time, looking for possibilities to meet their needs.
Have a great year eh. Continue your walk in His SonShine.
