The final day of our mission project was all we had hoped and prayed for. Children in both the Sports Camp and Western Camp prayed to receive Christ on the final day of the camp. Our attendance was up once again, and we had a strong finish to the week in terms of making connections with parents for The Edge Church. Parents from the Broadway Camp invited multiple family members and friends to attend the concert on Thursday night to see their kids perform. It was neat to see them making pictures and videos of their kids performing. Pastor Ryan Heller was able to meet the parents and invite them to worship with the church on Sunday.

In the afternoon, we had one final flyer distribution in neighborhoods close to the final Block Party, followed by a SONIC break! At 3:00 pm, we met for a week-end share service. The students had the opportunity to share with each other how God worked in their hearts through the week. Students were upbeat and honest. It was exciting to see many of our younger and/or newer students share how they had grown spiritually, made new friendships, and felt more connected to our church and youth group.

The final block party was a great finale to the week. No rain! Beautiful sunshine, and some 350-400 people attended. The choir was able to present music for 90 minutes, including the Broadway Camp Kids, and Western Camp Kids. Our Sports Outreach, led by David Maki, kept games going through the night for kids and families. All the while, The Edge Church was registering new prospects, distributing materials about their church, and making new relationships in an effort to reach people with the Gospel in the days ahead. The students led with joy - it was a fun, exciting and fulfilling ending to a week of hard work and effort to touch a community.

On Sunday, Ryan Heller will share with The Edge Church a great opportunity they have to expand their congregation by joining forces with another SBC church, which would result in a worship and education facility immediately, debt-free, with 10 acres for future expansion. This has potential to surge The Edge Church forward in a dramatic way way for growth and impact in the Aurora and Parker area. Please pray for God's direction and leadership in this possibility over the next several weeks.

Please join us for worship on Sunday at 9:30 am as Living Proof leads, and on Sunday Evening at 6 pm for the Home Concert and Mission Report.

We're about to begin the long drive home . . . thank you for your love and support all along the way!
