PRAYER

God, how wonderful it is that we get to spend time with you every day. Thank you for always being near enough to receive our worship and to hear about our day and our feelings. Help us to spend time with you by making every moment a life lived for you. Amen.

...Most of the time, we are so busy with doing other things, we tend to ignore God altogether. That's why we need to think about what we can do to make deliberate choices to spend time with God.

PRAYER

God, help me love my family, friends, neighbors, teammates, and even my enemies the same way you love me. Open my heart to accept others and listen to their stories, struggles, and feelings. Thank you for all the people you have placed in my life that I can learn from. Amene.

Even the early Christians back in John and Peter's time struggled with loving one another. In fact, that's why they wrote letters—to keep reminding them!

We can sometimes forget things, too. We forget how much God loves us. We forget that everyone is made in God's image. When we do this, we tend to focus on other people's flaws. We forget we are forgiven and we can grow.

Today's Bible story tells us about the gifts God has given us. And whatever those gifts are, they are the best ever—even if we're not exactly sure what they are yet.

God's gifts are things that we may not even know we need or have, but each of us have been given these gifts in order to serve others. And that makes them the best gifts ever!

Growing in our understanding of the story of our 'aina. Hearing some history of missionaries  and also visiting some historic sites.

But........ God's been here even before missionaries came.

The overarching purpose of this summer project is to equip you for ministry on your campus and beyond. Our intent is to increase your leadership skills so that you will have a greater impact for Christ in your spheres of influence.

Our desire is that you would learn to walk with God for a lifetime, both on campus and everywhere the Lord takes you in the future.

While this will be a stretching summer, we assure you it is worth it. You will grow more during this project than you imagine, no matter your level of spiritual maturity coming into the project. These three weeks together will likely result in lifelong bonds with each other and the Lord.
