Mike's Skate Shop Ministry
I think the third Sunday of the month is becoming my favorite... I love heading down to Hampton,Va. to Mike's Skate Shop and to be able to see the youth there being ministered to. It is really awesome. I thank God that He faithfully sends someone each month to bring forth "His Good News" to these young kids!
This month Brenton Sabo gave an message that ROCKED! He gave a message about sowing the seeds and the 4 hearts that the seeds fall on and which one is your heart! Even for those of us who have been saved for a long time I believe were challenged to check our heart's condition.
Here is "our gang" that we brought from CCW; Logan, Spencer, Junior, Evie, Claire and Destinee
Continue to pray for these youth kids...it is summer time and they have lots of free time on their hands, so pray that they are using it wisely and that they are spending lots of time seeking out God!
You are probably thinking "why did you take a picture of the back of all these heads?" Well, as I stood there taking in all the wonders of our Lord and I was so in awe of the many youth that He brought out this month...God challenged me to look into the crowd and see what He saw. You know for the 4 months that I have been able to be apart of this ministry to the skate shop..I have always thought about the youth kids and really praying for them and asking God how can we minister to them more...and this time God showed me something great! If you look closely(double click the photo and it will enlarge) on the outside of the bowl hanging on the railing and standing on the stairs and leaning on the back walls are the parents who bring their kids to this. God showed me that there is a bigger picture...are we to minister and bring God's word and worship to the youth there, absolutely and that is the heart of the owners, but at the same time there are parent's who are hanging out and the word is being planted into their hearts as well. God is so great! So if you have never joined us and taken a step of faith to come at to Mike's skate shop for this outreach and maybe you think you just don't relate to the youth..Know that their are parent's who are hanging out and need to be encouraged and inspired by God through you! It is amazing that we love to get together and hang out and fellowship but when god asks us to get involved and stand out and bring His word to this dying nation we pull back and we have so many things to do that we don't go, and ultimately the people miss out because it would be so much more effective for 10 or 15 adults being there to encourage and pray then 4 or 5.Will God use those faithful 5 ABSOLUTELY...but does He have a bigger purpose and plan for this city YOU BET!!! Don't miss this awesome time of ministry next month!
