Summer 2011 Update!


     This summer at TreeHouse has been one of unbelievable life-change. A couple of our students have come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, and their immediate growth has been humbling to see! I am so excited to tell you that God has been moving in the hearts of the young men I have the honor of mentoring. My one-to-ones with most of these guys have taken an intentional tone of discipleship. On the missions' trip, God broke three of my guys and now our one-to-ones are full of discussing Scripture, God's will, godly relationships, and much laughter. Through some of these relationships, many of the guys have begun reading the Bible on their own, then coming to our one-to-ones with their questions and thoughts. 
      Moreover, yesterday four of our students were baptized! I had the amazing opportunity to baptize two of the guys that God has been using me to disciple. The joy in their hearts overflowed yesterday as they shared their faith and their desire to follow Christ and glorify Him with their lives. God moves, we respond. It was beautiful hearing those students' responses yesterday!
      Thank you for your support throughout this last year. Lives are changing as God uses your faithfulness to these students. Your prayers are so vital to this ministry, and I welcome you to share in the joys God has blessed TreeHouse with over this summer! To Him be the praise, glory, and honor.
