So I got lost going to my first club today. Well, actually… I ended up at the house that my itinerary said buuuuut that wasn’t the hostesses house. Awkward, I know. But it wasn’t too bad because the people at the house I showed up at weren’t home. Their dog wasn’t too impressed, though. I ended up calling the hostess and figuring out where to go, and I was only 5 minutes late. It was a fun little adventure to start out my day.

At my first club, one boy raised his hand (when I gave the invitation) but ended up going inside the house after the club and didn’t come out. I was pretty bummed that he left without me being able to talk to him, but since he’s the hostesses kid he will be back tomorrow, so I will be able to talk to him!

My second club was at Nickel Lake (at the campground) but there were no kids!! 🙁 So me and my billet’s kids (my billets are also hosting this club) went around and tried to advertise. Where are all the kids??? Not at Nickel Lake… We decided to move the club to the evening in hopes of having more success.

My third club was in Weyburn! But there were no kids. So back to advertising! I am hoping and praying that some kids will come tomorrow.

Nickel Lake Round 2! So, as I said, we moved the Nickel Lake club from 2:30-3:30 to 6:30-7:30. This was a good move because we had two girls (plus 3 of my billet’s kids)! We also have two or three boys who want to come tomorrow, so pray that their mom lets them!

I can’t believe it’s only Monday… I’m way too tired for it to be only Monday! But it was a fun, adventure-filled day 🙂

Prayer Requests:

1. That I will be able to talk to the boy from my 1st club about asking Jesus into his heart. (And if it was fear/ doubt/ etc that made him leave that God would be working in his heart)
2. That kids will come to my club in Weyburn
3. That more kids will come to the Nickel Lake Club (and that the girls who came today would come back)
4. ENERGY! Tomorrow shouldn’t be as busy as today was, which is good. But if you could pray for energy for me I would greatly appreciate it! 🙂
5. Boldness. (see what I did there… 😉 ) I want to be a light outside of my clubs and talk to people God puts on my heart about the Gospel… so I would appreciate prayer for bravery as it is scary to approach someone you don’t know and boldly tell them the Good News.

Peace, Blessings, and all that good stuff,

Janessa.

Hi, I'm Janessa Robertson! I'm 19, from Regina, and this is my third summer teaching clubs! In the fall I will be going into my second year of university to get my education degree. I am so excited to see what God is going to do in the lives of the kids and workers this summer! Three main prayer requests: (1) Safety on the roads as I'm not very comfortable on gravel (2) Health and energy throughout the summer (3) The hearts of the kids to be softened and open to the Gospel
