Grace, mercy, and peace to you from God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

What would you rather have, a penny a day doubled or a million dollars?

Math says take the penny. It’s worth far more than the big chunk of cash.

It is this same thought process when it comes to talking about the Gospel.

Name one person in your life that you want to get to know more. Who you really want to invest in. Care for, and ultimately, even disciple. This could be a co-worker, a cousin or family member, or someone that you just feel like you could really connect with.

I’m asking you if you would consider investing in one person this year. One person to talk about life with in honest ways. One person who you can ask, “How are you doing? What are you praying about lately? How are you and Jesus this week?”

Jesus invested in people who then invested in others. I think that was the perfect example of how to do ministry. It’s not about the big programs or huge milestones, it’s the day to day. Will you walk alongside one person this year and openly and willingly ask, How are you and Jesus doing?

Dates to mark on the calendar
One more note, if you are going to be confirmed or are going to graduate this year, please start sending Russell different photos so that we can start working on the slideshows to highlight some of your faith walk. You can either bring in a flash drive with photos, share them on Google Drive, or email me.

Looking forward to Summer!

In Christ,
