Happy Tuesday Choir Fam!
Yesterday makes 15 years that I have been creating & running kid's programs. Truth be told, my mother was my first example as I watched her run Sunday School and Youth activities as a child.
I've taken the ball and run with it. Our programs have spanned two states & a couple cities lol.
The kiddos I started with are now grownups, some with their own babies. Even though my primary focus was girls, we always ended up with some boys in the mix which is why when I decided to begin again choir was first because it's inclusive!
We have done community service projects, hygiene drives, installed a playground, made rain barrels, installed community gardens, made blankets for the homeless & we are going to add to the list.
As I ponder all of the highs and lows one thing is for certain; your gift will always make room for you AND if you are willing God is able. Every door hasn't sprung open for me & truthfully at times I had to restrain myself HOWEVER what I do know is NO MAN validates what God calls you for so don't get stuck on the NO. Just trust God, if He has called you to it, the right YES will come.
Have I had people play in my face? Absolutely, yet the proof is in the programming, lol.
To date, we have 28 kids in choir & it's growing. We are getting ready to add additional activities & we know the goal that God has placed in our hands. So we trust & move forward.
To anyone who feels stuck, be encouraged. Start small, even if it's in your living room. Trust God, go forth and BECOME š©·
To the parents, guardians, program partners & supporters; Thank you for seeing my heart & for making room!
