Something cool happened last week and I would like ask all of you to be praying for this opportunity....
James and I were at Neighborhood on Wednesday for communion and the Jim, the pastor, was talking to me about how they want to start a ministry to love and care for the "stranger in the land". Jim knows that all immigrants (mainly hispanic in the Indy area) have to learn English to a certain degree and some want to and some don't care if they're making it fine right now. He would love it someone would be willing to start an ESL class to reach some of these immigrants, and to bring them into the church. He told me that they are not looking to control, but to only to guide this ministry.
So, I would love to do this and know that God would use this opportunity to build more relationships with Latino families and to help me practice my spanish!!! But, I'm not sure where to start. So, be praying that if this is the Lord's will that He will direct our steps and make them firm.
"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps." --Proverbs 16:9
Yes! That would be such an amazing opportunity!

Did you attend the 20 hour training through Indy Reads? If not, I definitely recommend it.
