It is amazing to see young children who have never heard about God or Jesus before in their lives believe in Jesus as their personal Savior. It is still more amazing to see those same young people mature into leaders as a result of this decision and then, when age and maturity level permit, see them willingly accept the opportunity to give back by helping at our Hope For Kids events! All the glory rightfully goes to our awesome God.

I had the opportunity just this past weekend to share with one such young lady that we at Hope For Kids wanted her to volunteer as opposed to participate in the event. Let me tell you her eyes lit up immediately! She tried to contain her excitement but her facial expression gave it all away as she couldn’t hide her obvious joy at being asked to help out! God is working in this girl’s life and even though I don’t know what He has in store for her, I do know that it all started with HOPE!
