The Lord continually brings new students through our doors—kids like Jayden, Aiden, Samuel, and Genevieve. Every Monday night presents a fresh opportunity to begin a friendship, introduce a student to Jesus Christ, and help them grow in their faith.
Jayden, a Whittier High School student, shared some of his family circumstances that created much uncertainty. His father’s recent release from prison has caused a lot of broken trust at home. I asked Jayden, on our way home, which idea from the club talk had caught his attention. His reply: “Surrendering your life to Jesus”.
Sometimes we cultivate a relationship over years; sometimes we receive only a few pivotal moments with students. I trust Jayden remains with us for years to come, but even if he moves on, the Gospel message has certainly touched his heart. What a gift to present the Good News of Christ to kids who don’t know Him!

The LSHS Lunch Club is now averaging a weekly attendance of 45 students. What a beautiful testimony of the Spirit’s work! Mayor Joe Vinatieri recently visited us and gave a compelling testimony to the students. We eagerly anticipate our annual Teacher Panel, our most exciting event, which will occur on November 5th and 12th, offering students a unique view of their teachers’ faith journey.

Please remember to pray for the teachers and their time of sharing with the students.
