On Mission with God
“Someone has prayed for you. Athletes in Action has prayed for you….” spoken by Mark Householder (President of AIA) at the commissioning of recent college graduates passionate about Jesus and on mission from God to serve a 1 year internship with AIA. A privilege it is to continue to equip, train and mobilize new laborers. These interns will reach out to/minister to people who are broken, spiritually harassed, helpless and in need of as Shepherd. …we have something to offer them that the World and their sport can’t.
This spring our LDHR services team hosted two of these Intern trainings (April 21st-23rd & June 9-11). This was a first for us to offer two trainings so we get include athletes competing in spring sports that couldn't come to our April date.
10 of those are new laborers that have bravely accepted the call to ministry in other countries (Puerto Rico, Czech Republic, East Asia). New this year Mike and I team taught all the Ministry Partner Development (MPD) material and had a BLAST. Let’s just say Mike was on “fire” and even staff serving at the training came up to me and said, “We’ve never seen this side of Mike!” A highlight for me was being asked to give the devotional again this year.
The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Thank you for the part you play in our ministry and in sending these 51 new missionary laborers. Also, Let us thank the Lord for answered prayers for more laborers! We pray for these workers as they prepare to take the message of the Gospel….to college campuses, sports teams and countries.
