We're truly blessed to have the opportunity to partner with families in discipling children. Recently, I asked our Building Blocks teachers to share any stories/testimonies about the children's spiritual experiences. Tracy Johnson, one of the teachers, shared the following:
"I do have one story...Robert Carrithers took the class this last time and called me after week 5 (the week we present the plan of salvation). He called to let me know he had asked Jesus into his heart that day. There were tears in my eyes after that because I have known Robert since infancy and he is a special young man. The Lord used that phone call as a blessing to remind me that's why we do what we do."
Thanks, Tracy, for sharing this story. And Robert, we're proud of you!
Building Blocks is a six-week class for elementary children who would like to deepen their understanding of what it means to be a Christian. The next class will begin on January 10 at 9:15 am for six weeks. Please let me know if your child is interested in attending this class.
To those of you who are currently teaching or helping, feel free to share your stories, too. And thanks so much for loving and guiding the children.
God's blessings to each one of you.
