Bible Quiz Regionals

Youth Challenge took three teams to the Midland regionals competition. Most of the quizzers on my team, Veritas, had never attended a post-season competition before. Everyone on Veritas answered, and several quizzed out! They also made memories with the other quizzers. The last night, the three Youth Challenge teams had the camp to themselves and enjoyed playing games together, including flashlight hide-and-seek. Final team standings: Witness placed 5th, Ginosko placed 21st, and Veritas placed 24th.

Our First Foster Care Placement

I was unable to attend regionals because Devin and I accepted our first foster care placement that weekend. I was minutes from loading onto the regional bus when we got the call: a pair of brothers needed a home. It was amazing to see God’s timing and provision. If we’d gotten the placement call even ten minutes later, I would have been on the road to regionals. After we accepted the placement, my mom was still in town and took me home.Devin didn’t have work that day. I had talked to the placing county the week before, who told me they didn’t utilize foster homes often. From owning the right carseat to backpacks to friends providing meals, we had everything we needed. God’s grace is sufficient. We kept the boys for a long weekend: playing games, visiting my mom’s animals, and enjoying an evening of s’mores. The boys have left our care now—please continue to pray for both kids and for their family. Special thanks to Ginger, Kyle, Amanda, and Nathan for covering for me at regionals! If you’d like as-it-happens foster care updates and pictures, you are welcome to join our private GroupMe.

Needing Parade Help

Youth Challenge will have a float in Brush’s annual Fourth of July Parade. This is one of our largest tract distribution events. I am looking for American flags to borrow for our float and volunteers to help distribute tracts to the spectators the day of the parade. If you’re interested in helping with either, please contact me.

Join My Prayer Team

Thank you to those who have claimed a day to pray for us! If you haven't yet, would you consider joining my prayer team? I’m creating a monthly calendar so every day is covered in prayer. First, select an open day you’d like to pray for our ministry, like the first Tuesday. Next, fast from something on your prayer day—a meal, social media, coffee—and pray for our ministry.

Year-to-Date Tract Counter: 80
