Our theme this year has been wonderful so far, last night I witnessed 50 students "pushing forward" in their walks with God. Every Thursday night we have 'expressions' which used to be called commitment service, but we like the call it CRY NIGHT. There we have a couple different stations that the students can go to.
- The cross, this is where people can write down anything they feel like giving to God and they actually can nail it to the cross.
- We have mirrors on the wall that you can look into and see how God really sees you.
- We have a foot washing station
- Journals that past teams have written in and you can see what people have written and you yourself can write a journal entry.
- A coffin that is filled with water with stones on the side that you can write that thing that might be holding you back from pursuing God and throw it into the water-filled coffin, it actually disappears and you can see how God just washes those old things away like the water did to the stones.
*this is a new addition to expressions night because of our theme.
I read through the journals of past teams that some date back from 06 and wrote down all the cry/prayers to God so that I can pray for those students in my quite time later that week. It's so wonderful to see students come here week after week to serve the people of the city.
Thank you for your prayers and support in making this happen each week. Enjoy your Easter(:
Love, Carrianne
