(Words of Aaron Cieply but I couldn't have said it any better)
It has been such a fun summer seeing God move in peoples lives and bring about freedom, transformation and healing!! I have seen the reality of God's love in my life and in the life of others, which encourages me to continue on with perseverance on the journey He has led me on. Thank you for enabling me to do what He has called me to, and what I love!
Just over a month ago, we began our summer youth program, Joshua Generation. We were involved with around 80 young people for an intense 3 weeks. Our time was full of teaching, worship, personal devotion, dance and drama training, evangelism training, and fun and games!
Our time together begins each year with a 10 day "boot camp". During this time, kids from all different kinds of backgrounds come with many different burdens and struggles and are met by our beautiful, redeeming God! These kids who range from 12 to 18 years old are set free from guilt, bitterness and a poor self image. We have themed teachings at night covering topics such as purity and forgiveness.
After the 10 day "boot camp", we split up into 4 teams and went throughout New England sharing the love of Christ and putting into practice all we had just learned. We performed the dances and dramas and spoke with thousands of people about the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ .
In just 10 days through 4 teams, God brought 900 people into a relationship with Him!
It was a miraculous and inspiring 3 weeks with these kids! I am sure their lives and the lives of thousands others has been changed by the powerful love of our great God!
My job this summer:
This summer for Joshua Generation I choreographed and trained the teenagers in a dance that they used during their outreach, It was a lot of hard work but so much fun and so worth all the time and effort. (check out the video “FreshWord” on www.JGBoston.org)
