Report
from Gepiu Community Centre
Oct 08 |
|
These days we’ve
been thinking of the discipleship that Moses did with Joshua.
It’s like a
relay run. You see, in a relay run, you’ve got two runners, and one
baton. There are several stages. The first runner runs by himself.
Then they both run. They pass the baton from one to the other, and
then the second runner runs by himself. |
|
At first, Moses led the people
through the wilderness all by himself. Then for a short period of time
he took Joshua along side, he gave him the prerogatives to lead the
future generation, and at last Joshua led the people through divine
grace. |

If there is one thing that we want to accomplish
in Gepiu it will be: young people with Godly hearts and with a strong
desire to lead. To lead people to Christ, to lead generations and
generations of struggling families out of poverty, to lead communities
with a strong sense of
selfless concern for the
welfare of others, and to lead the Church of God.
This is why we started the autumn meetings of the youth group, with a
study on doctrines and their practical implications in our life. Also
we have been creating - all kinds of cards (Christmas, Anniversary,
Birthdays, Birth) - that Linda our missionary from
Maryland, USA, will take
back home and hopefully they’ll have an impact. It is said that a
teenager has a strong desire to feel useful so we gave them good
reasons J
(they helped clean the courtyard and garden in the new Gepiu leaders
house).
We had work to give to the kids that come to the
after school program. They helped moving the corn we’ve harvest this
fall in the corn bin.

It’s always about shaping characters,
and as we well know it’s not only information we pass to the next
generation, it’s a way of thinking, a way of acting, and a new way of
seeing life. Hopefully, last but not least, is a new life in Christ.
