As I'm writing this, we are in the final session of the youth conference. Close to 200 young people and youth workers filled the ERM center! We were only expecting about 50 so this was a real blessing. But the far BIGGER blessing was the 25+ teens that made professions of faith in Christ and the many who came forward wanting to make their lives about Jesus Christ. A holy hush came over the room as the invitation after one of the sessions went about 20+ minutes. Both the youth workers and teens learned many valuable life lessons from the Scripture and it has been a "blessing of a day." I was also blessed to hear how a group of pastors got together today to have a "furnace room" for the youth conference!!!! A group of people came to the center at 5am to pray but the pastors were challenged to pray and ask God for the impossible! And God brought a great harvest for His glory, our good, and the good of many people. We taught the teens today on, "Real Christianity, Dreaming Bigger for Your Life, and Conquering Invisible Giants." The team also taught the youth in groups of 40 the, "Unlocking Your Potential" Curriculum. I also had a great talk with an American missionary today...He's the only missionary we have met since we have been here though there are a few more in the area. He has been serving in Zambia for 23 years, started 22 churches, and has faithfully served the Lord for quite some time. If Zambia is going to be transformed, some of the greatest impact will come through the spiritual leaders and the young people. We've had the gracious opportunity to be a huge part of both for His glory, by HIs grace, and our overwhelming joy. Thank you Lord for your faithfulness."
