"Let Your Light Shine"
A few weeks ago at one of the meetings, we gave our students a black piece of paper with a white dot on it.
We asked what is different about this paper you hold. They said it has a white dot on it. Why did you notice a small white mark when the whole 8x12 piece of paper in front of you is black? It stood out, they said.
I told them that in John Chapter 1, it is mentioned that light stands out and darkness does not comprehend it. I told them, “You are that white dot everyday. Make sure you let your little light shine.” Our students glowed at the detention center so much so, that they have asked us to come back once a month and hold bible studies and maybe some learning classes.
Thank you to all who sponsor a student and for all who gave towards the Christmas festivities. As Kelly and I left San Luis, Kelly said, ”Truly, that is the best party we have ever been to”.
It sure was.
Please keep us in your prayers as we wrap up 2017. If you would like to make a year- end gift, there is still time.
Thank you for all your prayers and support.
You are loved.
