Nearly 10 years ago I left my life in the quiet suburbs of the midwest, traded life in a house with a driveway and a garage for a 3rd floor 1 bedroom apartment in the Bronx to become a missionary to children and families in innercity New York City.
When God called me from the direction I thought my life was going to the direction my life took now I was definitely scared, nervous, and felt very unprepared. I mean my life was so much different then those of the families I was going to be ministering too.
But one thing I learned is that when God is in the mix that is all you need.
Each week in this blog I hope to share with you the lessons I have learned ministering in the innercity of New York City. If you have any questions for me please feel free to leave them in the comments and I will try to answer them the best that I can in the next blog post.
I look forward to sharing with you all that I have learned in my 10 years of innercity children's ministry.
I am looking forward to hearing what God has placed upon your heart as you follow Him! Thank you for sharing.
