120

120, that's how many teens showed up at the 2:28 youth service last week. If you add in the handful of others who came Sunday with the 75 or so children over in Jumpgate, Little Lambs and nursery, then we ministered to about 200 young people last week. That's about the same number of adults we ministered to also last week.

We've said forever, "At Cornerstone Church, we love kids." Our words of prophesy have come to pass. Our biggest challenge now is to build quickly enough to accomodate our growth. What a great problem!

Miss Lisa, JD and Jame are doing an outstanding job with our young people. Our adults have created an atmosphere where kids feel welcome and loved. What a great privilege I have to lead such a godly group, with the heart of Jesus toward children!

The disciples tried to send parents away, who were bringing their children to Jesus to be blessed. Mark 10:14 - 16 (NLT), "When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, 'Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.' Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them."

I don't want to send any young people away. So, we are working hard to get our building project funded and built as soon as possible. If God puts something on your heart to help us, then please be as quick to respond as is possible.

Peace,
Stan
