Before diving into some April highlights, let me tell you a brief but true story of how the day sometimes goes working at First Priority.
Tuesday
- First Priority guy ignores warning lights on his car dashboard, reasoning that they’re probably false alarms.
Wednesday
- 6:15am – left house for 7:30am club meeting.
- 6:45am – First Priority guy rethinks his theory about warning lights when car breaks down on the interstate.
- 7:00am – Calls for tow truck and arranges transport with hopes of making an 11am club meeting.
- 8:30am – Misses ZOOM call meeting trying to get a tow truck lined up.
- 9:30am – Back up transportation arrives…but with a flat tire. Sheeesh.
- 10:00am – The back up to the back up transportation arrives, but with an empty gas tank, seriously.
- 10:05am – First Priority guy starts to wonder who doesn’t want him at these club meetings today.
- 11:00am – First Priority guy arrives at 11am club to find record attendance but the speaker is sick and the Club Coach couldn’t make it either.
- 11:05am – First Priority guy delivers on-the-spot Gospel message, realizes God gave him the illustrations he needed through the events of the morning, about not ignoring “warning lights” in your life.
Days like this can be a good reminder that God really does work all things together for good when we are committed to HIS purposes. Sometimes you just have to look for it a bit longer.
Now for the latest…
Chucky Doak HS had a record attendance meeting with 10 additional souls joining the normal FP crowd.
Sullivan Heights MS had a fantastic INVITE week with 12 salvations!
In Hawkins County over 100 students were introduced to the ministry of First Priority at a youth event called Fusion.
University High launches their club this month with the 8 trained students leading the way.
Little Milligan Elementary had two students respond to the Good News at their very first INVITE week while TA Duggar Intermediate followed up with two of their own.
We need your prayers. This is a critical time of year as we are identifying our student leaders and volunteers to carry on existing clubs and launch new ones for the upcoming school year.
That said, it takes resources to pull this off so please consider a monthly investment to First Priority as you review your giving priorities for the upcoming summer months.
Thank you for your faithfulness to this ministry!
Sincerely,
David North
