Compass Ministry Part 2

So we have had two more weeks of groups since I talked about the ministry side of things. After coming off two awesome weeks to start the summer we had high expectations. Things did not go as well as we had hoped. The hard thing about running a ministry in which we only see kids for a week is that sometimes we do not see the work that the Lord is doing. These past two weeks were like that. We know that the Lord was working and that things were changing in these kids hearts, but we did not see the fruit or even any outward expression of things changing. It gets discouraging for our staff in these so called "dry spells" but we have to be faithful and keep doing what the Lord has called us to do. We might never know the impact we had long term for these kids. All that to say we would love some prayer for the next four weeks of groups that will finish off the summer. We have a group arriving as I type and then three weeks after that. Please keep our family, Compass, and our students that we minister to in your prayers.
