PLEASE pray!

This morning I received a text from my good friend Jenny from TeenServe. A little bit of background information- TeenServe was the organization I worked for last summer. They go around the midwest and set up camps that youthgroups from all over attend for a week. They are split up into groups and help fix up people's homes duing the day and attend an evening program at night. And Jenny is an awesome woman of God who worked with me last year and is working there now as well.

So I got this text- Please pray. We had a boy at camp who attempted suicide tonight.

Bahhh! So I don't know any details, but I think just that much is enough to get me down on my knees! I can't imagine what he was going through and what lies he was believing to get to that point amidst hundreds of christians loving and serving others.

But it's so important we pray for all of TeenServe. Last week when I went to visit them I learned that they were under a lot of spiritual battles. Several on the team had been having demonic dreams, a couple of the rooms in the school were having spirit activity, and a woman that was helping lead up a team of 50 kids suddenly got a tumor in her uterus (she had emergency surgery and is fine now). Obviously the devil is up to something because he knows that God is up to something bigger!

So TeenServe is finishing up this week of kids tomorrow, then will be heading to Butler, Indiana and setting up for the workcampers all next week. The kids will be there July 11-17. So please keep all of them in your prayers. Thank you!
