Trophy Case: Serving Alongside A Former Student
Last weekend Kyle and I co-lead a cabin at our high school ministry’s discipleship retreat. It was a great time not only because we love being together, but because Kyle was one of my students who graduated from high school 2 years ago.
After the evening chapel service, I watched as Kyle led the discussion. I had plenty of notes I could have used to guide the conversation in case Kyle needed help. However, Kyle did a great job. I only chimed in once near the end when he asked for my input.
Seeing students come up to work alongside me is much more rare than I would like it to be. It’s so rewarding to see them owning their faith and pouring into the generation coming up behind them. Seeing Kyle do for others what I did for him is one of the best rewards a youth worker could ever hope for.
Kyle thinks we're just posing, but he's about to be covered with the snow in my hand
