Nathan (who posted above) has been my "coach" for prob 3 yrs now for small groups. But i remember a kid who was in my small group at "Camp Paradise" 4 years ago...He accepted Christ while he was there and i had the opportunity to guide him in his relationship...when he returned his family saw such a difference in his life that they started coming to FPC...soon his mom, step dad, little brother, and step sister (his step sister was from a different state) had accepted Christ and all came to me to help them get there (very humbling)! They are all still active and growing in the church. Sometimes I wonder how many of those stories there really are that we don't get to see...

But the greatest has been seeing those I lead coming back and serving at the church. Some are playing in the band during the weekend services, others have come back and become small group leaders in middle school! Now I am serving along side of them, how amazing! It is so awesome to see them serving God. I totally agree that we don't get to experience how much of an impact we truly have made, that's why I cherish what I have been able to see. i’ve had the opportunity to serve at FPC in the middle school ministry for several years, I have watched those I taught and lead go off to college, make tough decisions about their life, essential grow up into men out on their own.
