We are getting ready to leave on a month-long trip to Shiloh, Iowa, for the summer. We have been doing this for 10 years now! It all started in 2001 when Silas Esteves, our pastor in Brazil, asked us to be part of the overseeing team for the Young Adult School of Prophets. This is a program for young people ages 12 to 17 during the Shiloh School of Prophets.
We were already working with the young people at our church in Brazil, and were also involved in other areas of the church. But our main involvement has always been with people and relationships.
In the last 10 years we have been privileged to be around many young people and we have seen their relationship with God deepen, we are always proud of the many that have been part of the program and are still growing in God and in all aspects of their life.
More than anything else, for me and my wife, Debbie, we feel that it is our responsibility to communicate what we have received, and impart to the next generations the gift we have received. “You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others.” (2 Timothy 2:2, NLT)
We are really looking forward to this time in the school of prophets, where we are going to have many gathered together in the same place, looking for a meeting with the Lord and something new to happen not only for our own personal lives, but a change that can actually affect the lives of many.
