Eleven days in Texas, and, already, I have meet some fantastic individuals. People who make me laugh, think, smile and experience glimpses of God's character in new ways. I look forward to the next season getting to know one another, being poured into, loving, serving, and studying with one another.
Last Sunday evening, our leaders opened their home for a Fellows reunion dinner. Past and current Fellows from Sky came to feast on BBQ and share stories. We were led into a time where past fellows (ten years total) offered advice based on their experience. I was appreciative of the words shared and filled with excitement for what the future holds. After many shared, we formed a prayer circle and were prayed over. I felt supported by the prayers of those around me, encouraged to witness the power of the community, and challenged to step up to my role as a Fellow. To work faithfully for the Lord, honoring those who served before me who paved a way for the possibility of the Fellowship's current format. These photos came from that evening.
Community can be messy, frustrating, or painful, but also beautiful, healing, and supportive. God designed us to be in relationship with one another. These relationships often bring us closer to Christ. I pray you may be embraced by a community who seeks to love others through Christ. May you have opportunity to be vulnerable, to be heard, and to be loved.
All my love,
Gennavieve
