Kilby Shores has finally begun wow a lot of work getting this set up and greatly appreciate all the prayers from fellow CEF Staff members and physical support.
Our club is small (5) and these kids are eager and already engagedHowever their knowledge of Scripture and of Jesus Christ is very very limited.
We have begun already with the 1st lesson memory verse and have given each child a bible and high lighted the memory verse in their new bible
Our only prayed requests this week comes from our team volunteers that Our Savior will give us the wisdom and strength to reach these children in a biblical way & at their level so that they will come to accept Him as their own SaviorAlso give the team strength and not loose focus in the days ahead as we have team members coming from Newport New Shipyard area and Norfolk Naval Base Areas so the traffic can be quiet discouraging.
As time goes on Im sure the kids will learn from our Lessons “God Keeps His Promises” and will soon be providing prayer requests
more to follow in the weeks ahead
