Celebrating the Call to My Lifelong Ministry
For many years, I have felt a strong calling to serve in ministry. I prayed, waited, and worked diligently, often feeling anxious about whether I was on the right path. Recently, my dream was fulfilled as I was appointed as a youth pastor in my local church. This opportunity feels like a miracle! I am overflowing with gratitude for God’s faithfulness, His provision, and the support from my family and church community. I want to praise Him for this incredible blessing but also seek prayers for wisdom and strength as I step into this new role. I desire to be a worthy vessel for His work and to truly impact the lives of the youth I will serve.
Pastor's Response
Pastor Sarah Mitchell
Campus Ministry Director
Dear Michelle, what a joy it is to hear your testimony of God’s faithfulness! As you step into your new role as a youth pastor, remember the words from Psalms 136:1, "O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever." Your journey has been a testament to God’s goodness, and your heartfelt gratitude is pleasing to Him. As you guide the youth, I encourage you to lean on the promise found in Romans 8:31, "If God be for us, who can be against us?" He has equipped you for this calling. Remember to keep Him at the center of your ministry, as Ephesians 5:20 reminds us, "Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." I will pray for your wisdom and the strength to fulfill your calling. May you continue to grow in faith and love as you lead.
