Yesterday morning I went out to the Sunday School classes to check on our visitors. When I walked past the preschool playground, Stephen, a teen helper, was playing an active game with the little boys. They ran one direction behind the equipment, then he ran the other. They screeched with delight every time he surprisingly found them.
Then I walked into the nursery and found Kelsey, also a teen, making sure every toddler had a puzzle and knew how to put it together. She was determined no one would feel left out or unsuccessful at puzzle making.
In 1 Timothy 4 Paul said to Timothy, "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity."
Stephen and Kelsey are just two of of the numerous amazing teens God has called to serve faithfully in our Early Childhood department. They all make sure the children have fun and feel loved. They represent Jesus well!
Lord, thank you for the way you created these amazing young people. Please continue to grow them into the godly men and women that you created them to be. And thank you for calling them to serve in our Children's Ministry Department at El Camino. Their energy and love help children and adults know that You love them! Please bless them mightily!
Thank you for loving our little ones so much! You are all such a blessing to us!
