Crossways:
Well we have just returned from Project SERVE and have had an AMAZING time! We had the opportunity to go to Tonto Rim camp and serve God by serving them. Our task- split a LOT of logs, and dig out a pond. Sounds easy enough, but it was hard labor and yet, NO BODY wanted to stop! When put in perspective we realized that the wood we were chopping would go towards campfires that would bring many to salvation. The students of Crossways jumped in with both feet and pushed themselves out of EVERY comfort zone they had. We had a blast too! Not only did we have great games, music, and Bible study in the evening but we couldn't help but have fun working as well! Also, on the last night of the unforgetable camp Li'l B became a brother in Christ! HURRAY and AMEN! Everyone came back changed and ready to serve in any way possible! I am so excited to see how we make Project SERVE a lifestyle! Just remember, "Hi-ho-hi-ho it's off to work we go!"
A word from the Word:
Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave—just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."-Matthew 20:26-28
This is what Project SERVE focused in on. Teaching us to put ourselves aside and place others needs first. To truly care for those that God has told us to serve. He desires for His children to follow Christ's example of servanthood and do anything we can to point others back to our Creator. This is where we learn to get out of our comfort zone and serve.
