Parents seem a little happier, kids a little gloomier… it must mean school starts tomorrow. I’m excited, I’m looking forward to it. I’ve seen a lot of students walking around telling them about the Uprising kickoff, telling them to join a small group, inviting them to be a part of the weekends and it seems they are taking it seriously. I know when a student tells me that they are going to check out Upward Ministries at Nativity because they are interested, but it gets difficult because somewhere during the week something (homework, family, sports, television, friends, etc) else presents itself. That’s why it’s important to consistently present an invitation, to be persistent and to be genuine.
