Samuel Gill Servant in Training with NTM 
For about six consecutive days, including Saturday, the weather forcast for yesterday (Sunday) predicted rain most of the day. We were afraid that our weekend fun with the youth was going to be seriously dampened by the weather. However, after about a 15 minute burst of rain at 9 am, the skies cleared up and we had a perfect day. Thank you, Lord!
Thank you so much for praying. We had 8 kids come - about what we were expecting. I think it’s fair to say that they really enjoyed the activities. We laughed our way through Madagascar II on Saturday night and then hit the sack around 2:30 pm (with the time change). Sunday’s activities went well, except that the treasure hunt was a little more challenging than the kids had anticipated. 2 1/2 hours of running around and solving riddles left the kids tired and hungry, the perfect lead into a hamburger lunch. I think today they can look back and say they had a great time, although there were moments when we had to encourage them not to give up.
The crowning activity of the weekend was our devotional after breakfast. It was so neat to hear the youth share about different things they are learning and to express the ways they are struggling at home or in school. When we asked for prayer requests, someone mentioned "unsaved family." One of the girls, who was invited by one of the regular comers, asked me, "What does it mean to be ’saved’? I praise the Lord for the opportunity to share with this girl what it means to accept Jesus as her savior. Now we are praying that God would help Kat to make this personal. She comes from a church where the Gospel is not taught. Please pray with us for Kat and for wisdom as we continue to disciple the youth.
