Re:volutionaries


Words cannot express the way I feel today. I am so incredibly proud of the 48 students who made their way at 7 AM to Hickory High School this morning! What's even more encouraging us the fact that only about 1/3 of them at best, we from our church.) Last year there were about 20 who showed up for the early prayer event.

The thing I love about this event is the fact that it connects so many students that may have never known that there were other believers in their school. For Hickory, who knows? This could be the start of something big on that campus, or perhaps even the entire valley!

Emily Woods did a great job opening today with a scripture and an illustrative reading about Eli and his call. There was another girl (I don't know her name) who then led off in prayer, and encouraged everyone to add their prayer to hers. All but about 2 students did exactly that!

I am really proud of the Re:volution students who made a great effort to be there, and I can't wait to see what God can do with this group. I am so hopeful for the greater things that will come, with Pastor Mark. Way to go, Rev, but don't stop here...let SYATP be a spring-board to greater things for God!

See you guys tonight for our LAST Re:volution service together. Don't miss it!
