Arborbrook School - Thank You Johanna for initiating our visit.



Thank you Arborbrook High School for inviting Berhanu and Ephraim to your classes this morning, they had a blessed time with both classes. It was wonderful to see the Holy Spirit take the lead in our sharing today with these students. This morning we prayed together that God would do just that. Walking across the parking lot after we had finished one girl approached us and said that was GREAT today! I hadn't even recognized the student from the class. But the way she said "that was GREAT today," with such emotion, really impacted me because I knew that what she heard today really impacted her heart. I knew that was the work of the Holy Spirit, it always is, he goes before you and prepares the heart of the listener. When you share, the Spirit is powerfully communicated in simple words and the heart of the hearer is moved deeply, even brings some to tears. Thank you Holy Spirit for using us today at Arborbrook, brought back AWESOME memories of the three of us being used in the early years of the church centered sports ministry work in Ethiopia. We pray that the truth of God's word, the life experiences of following Christ, and the challenges that were shared with the students would manifest themselves in these young men and woman's hearts & minds. Ephraim, Berhanu and I desire that in the days, weeks and months ahead each of these students would be more grateful for the the opportunities they have to study and learn the truth's found in God's Word, to give from their abundant resources to those in need, and to just be more grateful in all area's of their lives. Moreover, we desire that they would love God with more passion, and have a greater zeal in following Jesus with absolute reckless abandon and total surrender to His Kingdom purposes on this earth. PRAY with us for these 30 students hearts as they attend Arborbrook HS this year. Pray also for their teachers!
