I have the immense privilege of attending Kaleo AGAIN this coming summer and I'm extremely excited about it. In fact, this year I will be leading a D-Group!
Why? Why did I decide to go back?
Matthew 9:37 - "Then he said to his disciples, 'The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.'"
The reality of the matter is that the harvest is just as plentiful now as it was this time last year, and the workers, sad as it is, are just as few. I'm committed to being trained as a worker and Kaleo is the best way I know of how to do that. Also, I refuse to leave K-State or my sorority without the assurance that another woman is ready and trained to carry on the work of laboring in the harvest and making disciples.
Snapshot of what Kaleo really is...
My responsibilities as a DGroup Leader...
- Living with and leading 3 women (most likely from my sorority) for 9 weeks at Kaleo
- Leading weekly bible study of 2 Corinthians
- Leading weekly book study of The Pursuit of Holiness by Jerry Bridges
- Meeting one-on-one with each girl in my group weekly
- Participating in DGroup Leader trainings each Nonday
- Working about 30 hours a week at Publix
- Attending trainings, large group meetings, beach evangelism, etc with my group
- Having a great time in the midst of that!
God says that he can do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine when we come to Him in prayer. As I approach the summer I realize that prayer will make or break my group's experience, so I beg you to pray with me.
Some prayer requests:
- That I would finish strong academically and in ministry on campus
- That God would reveal to me now areas that I need to improve in as a leader and as His follower
- That God would provide for me financially
- That God would prepare the hearts of the girls in my DGroup for a summer of growth. Pray that they would become women of F.A.I.T.H. (faithful, available, initiative takers, teachable and have a heart for God and others)
Love you,
Kelsey
