Great Things Happening in June


Great things are still to come this summer! 

Tune yourself to hearing about what I've done in June!

           Hey everyone, hope you all have been doing well! It’s been such a HUGE blessing to have you be a part of my life. I appreciate all your prayers and notes of encouragement! I thank God every single day for people like you and so I say it again, thank you.

            June has been a very hectic month! I had lots of enjoyable and insightful experiences. This month, I’ve had the chance to preach at youth group, help in community service projects, and be a part of a children’s summer camp.

To expand on each event more; I’ve had the privilege to share a message to the youth at Adventure Christian Church. Currently, the youth group is going through a series called “Lenses”  where we look at common worldview people believe in and see what the Bible says on it. I had the chance to speak based off Luke 18:18-27 (Rich Young Ruler). In the message, I conveyed to the youth that we cannot do anything on our own to be made right in the eyes of God, but to only TRUST IN JESUS to be made right. This upcoming Sunday, I will be giving another message to the youth about humility based off John 13:1-17. I’m very excited to keep on being able to present God’s Word to His people!

            The next big event that I was a part of was a community service project where Adventure, as a Church, goes out to serve the community. There were lots of opportunities that the Church did to serve the community. This year, I had the chance to help with Habitats for Humanity, an organization that helps build houses for the community, and help at a Discovery Meadows Park. It was lots of fun and hard work as I met new faces at the Church, build friendships, and learn about construction and weeding! Such great experiences that’ll be used in the near future.

            Lastly, I was beyond amazed at how effective summer camp was. This summer I had the privilege of going to Wi-Ne-Ma, a Church camp, to be with 100+ elementary kids! It was tough and exhausting as I had little sleep and had to be very patient with each kid, but it was fruitful. I got to see kids devoting their lives to Jesus, singing songs of worship (the most beautiful noise you could ever hear), and having fun. It’s such a huge blessing to see God at work. At Wi-Ne-Ma, I also had the chance to speak at one of the nights about Jesus. Because of this camp, many have given their lives to Jesus. A true blessing it is to be a part of God’s work.
                                                 GOD IS ON THE MOVE!

            These three events are the main takeaways I’ve had from June. Again, I cannot express how truly blessed I am to have you be a part of my adventures this summer. I thank God for such a wonderful experience and for always providing for me! If there are any questions or you would like to reach out to me, my email is: Johnwong1216@gmail.com
