Director’s Address
The Lord is continuing to do a great work in our clubs. We are so thankful for all the children who have started attending. During the month of November, six of our clubs had new children. This is so exciting to see. There was a total of 11 new children. The most exciting was to hear that six children prayed to receive Christ as Savior. This is always exciting to hear, and the most important. Praise the Lord for these children! Christmas break is coming soon, so pray that more children will start attending before the break. We were also excited that more people got involved in clubs. This was an answer to prayer, but we are still praying for more people to get involved so we can start new clubs.
I had the opportunity to go to Cornerstone Christian Academy to speak in chapel. This was the second time I’ve been able to speak there this school year. There was a total of 24 students in attendance, and all seemed to enjoy the lesson. I plan to be there again this month and in future months.
Now that we are in the month of December, our office will be closed Fridays through the end of March. The office will definitely be closed on December 24–25 and January 1. If you need to come to the office during the last two weeks of December, please call first to make sure someone is there.
It has been a month and a half since Wendy had her back surgery, and she is slowly improving. She is still in the back brace, and the plan is for her to be in it until the end of January. She has a doctor’s appointment on December 13, where they will be taking x-rays to see how well her fusion is healing. Pray that this appointment will go well.
We here at Shoreline Child Evangelism Fellowship® wish all of you a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
