3/12- Declaring God’s Glory with Tutoring Kids at the HUB- Psalm 34:11

Come, my children, listen to me;
    I will teach you the fear of the Lord.(Psalm 34:11)

Thoughts: The HUB is a community place that was formerly a bar.  This particular bar was also a haunt for drug dealers.  When three murders occurred there in less than a year the churches got together and bought the property and turned it into a community center.  There neighbors meet to talk about and plan the improvement of their community.  Girls join girl scouts and boys cub scouts.  And a few adults come and teach the children- about reading, writing, arithmetic, and God.  But there too children are taught that they are made in the image of God; that Christ loves them enough to die for them.
    In the summer the church brings a meal to these kids- most of whom get no lunch otherwise.  We also teach a Vacation Bible School program.  The children come- and are taught to respect and fear the Lord.  It is on the front lines in our community for drug prevention and gang violence.

Prayer: Today we pray for Melinda Rogers, Lottie Moon, Jodi Layne for their work with young people at the HUB.  We also pray for the children who come that they will be blessed.
