Celebrate The Win

Celebrate the win with us!

Greetings, I would like to thank everyone in the Fairfield West Family for the prayers and support for the teens this year at LIFT CAMP.

Too many times we Christians move from event to event without truly praising God for the work he has done among us. On one hand we always want more. We cry out to God exclaiming “We are hungry for  you Lord! Please save this generation!”, but on the other hand we move along too Quickly if we do not thank God and thank others around us for help. It is important to celebrate the wins and to rejoice in the day of rejoicing!  We took 86 with our group which is the largest group that we have taken in about 9 years and for sure the largest group I have had to manage in the 4 years since I have been youth pastor. I am so grateful for your prayers and financial support to send teens to camp and care enough to help see students saved.

Spiritual warfare is real!

The enemy is an outspoken killer (roaring lion) who is trying to destroy the lives of teens and this is why we are outspoken enthusiasts of Jesus who is the all powerful son of God who was dead, buried and rose again on the third day  and who offers life, life abundant and life eternal. He is a well that does not run dry the thirsty run to him and are quenched. In two weeks we have see two teen deaths effect this student ministry. Teens are hurting more than ever and I am so humbly grateful that they are coming to us for help because tragedies are inescapable, but the Bible says we are not without hope and we are never FORSAKEN. We can be salt and light to a culture that desperately needs the gospel of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9 states that we are not “forsaken”…in fact it is impossible for the Christian to be forsaken. Things may get bad, but we are never without resource if we are in Christ. He was forsaken so we never have to be.

On behalf of every teen that this ministry and on behalf of the 11 saved this year at camp and the many who rededicated their lives and gave their lives to full time ministry…THANK YOU!!!!!!! With love and In Christ,

Pastor Steve
