In ministry some have found that its hard to measure effectiveness because relationships are viewed as intangible objects. I however disagree! I believe a relationship is a tangible object. Its who you turn to and lean on when things get tough.
Its our relationship with Jesus that has saved us. We needed saving and Jesus, in relationship, put skin on and came to our rescue. A guy named Thomas once put his hands in His nail holes - that's tangible.
We have been sent to be the tangible Jesus. Help us make that possible. Your donations and support help us to train up and send out college and young adults that are committed to walking students through their toughest years. We want to train up and send you out as well. Lets begin our relationship. Times are tough. Let's lean on each other.
From the mouth of our mentors:
Davey and I have been sailing for a few months now at Lake Mission Viejo. God has given me a catch twenty-two circumstance in our sailing outings. The wind at LMV isn't the greatest, not to mention the most reliable. But as it turns out, that's not a bad thing. Sometimes we have a hoot, hiking out (that's when the boat is tipping, and you lean out over the water to keep from capsizing) - those are the times we come for the adrenalin rush.
Others times the water is dead calm. Times like these are when the deep spiritual conversations spark and I really get him. God has blessed me by using me in Davey's life, and he is slowly becoming more comfortable with our conversations.
