Have you ever experienced a change in leadership? Ever been delegated leader or chose to be a follower? Did you experience sucess or failure? These were the questions we considered this week as we looked at the mantle of leadership being passed from Moses to Joshua ... and of course continuing our water theme with the Israelites crossing over the parted Jordan river... similar to what God did for them at the Red Sea. Our incredible kids have raised almost $1400 for our water project and we are so pleased they turned their knowledge into a measurable act of kindness and generosity for the least and lost of the world! This was our last week at Lakeside for the 2009 season and we were very busy saying goodbyes... relaxing on the beach for a few more afternoons ... seveal meals with friends ... one final Wednesday night picnic ...and packing up everything for our journey back home. It has been a mafnificent summer! We are so grateful to the Lord for the new relationships we developed, the ones we strengthened and all the opportunities we had to plant seeds of God's knowledge and wisdom from His Word into the hearts and minds of the kids at Lakeside who attended our MGM program! We look forward to the new challenges and chances we will have this year in Charlotte and beyond to spread the good news of the gospel of Jesus!
