Lately.........

Lately.......many of the Mixtec kids are very worried about everything. Kids shouldn't have to be anxious about anything.
They are worried about being shipped back to Mexico after Sept.1st, they are worried because "cultish" people keep coming to their door, they are worried about starting junior high school, they are worried that their fathers will die from drinking too much, they are just plain worried! At Yarborough Street Baptist, in the 5th and 6th grade class, we are talking about the Holy Spirit and how important that Person is in our lives.
****************************
1. Pray for the Holy Spirit to infiltrate these kids and parents lives and make Himself known to them.
2. Pray that our kids will be content and at peace and trust the Lord to take care of their families.
3. Pray for families in Montgomery who are trying very hard to do the right thing. There are several families (who are legal)who have been scared by meanspirited people who need help.

Muffins and Milk at YSBC

Mrs Ty from Japan is overjoyed with the kids for thinking of her home country and she prayed with the kids that the money they raised would be used for God's glory in Japan!

The kids at YSBC raised over $200 for Disaster Relief in Japan. Very proud of what they did and how they worked hard to help!

From Yarborough Street Baptist Church Children's Sunday School

I nearly cried on Sunday when our 5th/6th Grade Sunday School class asked to do something for Japan. We were thinking and eating our snack of milk and muffins and Rosalinda said..why don't we sell Muffins and Milk to our church and send the money to Japan? She is 11. She is from a Mixteco family with very limited resources. She thinks of others first. What a woman she is going to be!!!!! What about you?
