First McKinney Students

Great day today!

Let me start with the biggest news: the girl we asked you to pray for—the one whose name we couldn't share—accepted Christ today! God is amazing, and we are celebrating what He has done in her life. Please continue praying with us for four more kids who are very close to making the same decision. God is clearly at work here.

Today we rotated groups again, and your teens continue to serve one another, the camp, and the soup kitchen in so many incredible ways. Their attitudes, flexibility, and willingness to jump in wherever needed have been a huge blessing.

We ended the evening with a youth rally alongside the church that meets here on campus. Our students led worship, shared testimonies, and helped deliver a special message. It was a powerful time of encouragement and worship.

One of the highlights of the night was seeing an old friend from Dénia named Andy. Andy was a foreign exchange student from here in Dénia to McKinney last summer and even went with us on our mission trip to Alaska. It's an awesome reminder of how God weaves lives together, the church that meets here on campus is his church. It was amazing to reconnect and see God's tapestry being woven.

As we head into tomorrow, we'll continue rotating groups and serving both here on campus and at the local soup kitchen. Please pray for those four students who are considering following Christ, and pray for our group as a whole. God is doing something special here, and our prayer is that what He is teaching us and doing in our hearts will come home with us.

We have two more days of ministry ahead, and we are excited to see the many ways God will continue to use these students!

Great first day on the ground. We were able to explore Alfa & Omega, the campground/campus that we are staying at here in Spain, and also visit the church that meets here. We also had a Spain World Cup watch party with some of the volunteers here at the camp. All the kids are having a blast and ready for Bible camps in the morning. Tomorrow we will split into groups, most of our teens will be doing Bible camps, but a few will serve at a soccer (fútbol) camp that we just partnered with, a soup kitchen in the community and completing list of work projects here on campus. You can join us in praying for the kids we encounter tomorrow, for our teens as they prep to share their testimonies. May God bless us and use us here in Spain.
