Common Threads in Spiritual Growth

Last Sunday 9 people got baptized at Westwinds Church -- 4 of them were kids.

all of the kids had either their mom or dad baptized them
all of the kids said that they love Jesus and want to follow him
all of the kids have been or are currently involved in wwKids (or student journey)

What powerful stories these kids possess. That Jesus loves them, that Jesus makes a difference in their life, that Jesus has healed their family and restored wholeness. The kids stories are different but have two common threads. Both parents and community (the church) are actively involved in guiding, nurturing and demonstrating to the kids what it looks like to follow Jesus.

Parents, you MATTER in your kids’ lives. They look to you for guidance and direction when it comes to spiritual matters. And wwKids leaders, we MATTER in our kids’ lives. We may not always see direct results, but what we do MATTERS in helping shape and guide our kids.

Never, never give up on our kids!
