Celebrate America
We are so in awe at how God works! This 4th of July we were invited to have a table at Compass Church's Celebrate America event, and we were able to see the fruit of CEF come alive before our eyes. While we have had a table there in previous years, this year was something special!
We were privileged to have CYIA (Christian Youth In Action) teens from the Greater Sacramento Area AND Silicon Valley come and volunteer, as well as our two local teens from Greenfield! Some of these teens were trained just this summer in how to share the Gospel, and they were already putting those skills to use. It was a sweet moment to see the future of the church, the next generation, at work before us, and to know that the prayers and efforts of our volunteers and staff through CEF are truly planting seeds that are growing in these kids! Because we first obeyed the Great Commission, these teens were able to take up the torch and themselves obey.
Because of these teens and their heart for the Lord, we were able to share the Gospel with 118 children, and 26 of them accepted Jesus as their Savior! God is so good to use us broken humans in accomplishing His divine purposes.
