Shining For God All the Way to the End

firecracker

This week has been an outstanding experience. World Changers Barnwell Bamberg has impacted lives and evangelized about Christ. This week they rose with ambition every morning to be the living example of what Christ is like for so many eyes to see. Sweating and painting, roofing and shoveling the students applied all the strength they had to making a difference in someone’s life.  As they desired to change someone’s life, they were set apart by God.                                                                                               DSCN1273DSCN1342
To stand out amongst a crowd, to be different from others is how each participant at World Changers was viewed this week.  Selected and hand picked by God himself, this week the students learned they were chosen and appointed by God to do his will. The students learned how to seek holiness and be set apart. As lesson fed the spiritual aspect, the students mingle in relationships and gained experiences they’ll never forget.

A Ton of Bricks!!!

Bricks are heavy and so were the eyelids of every World Changers participant that enjoyed their afternoon off yesterday. Morning arrived and hit like a ton of bricks! Feet dragged as voices murmured through the hallways. World Changers Barnwell/Bamberg was back to work. Rising before the break of dawn the students prepared for another day of hard work. As a hot meal brought to life the personalities of every student, voices began to rise loudly into the cafeteria. Today the students headed out to work knowing they had only on more day to go!

Arriving at the site the students gazed upon the construction and beauty they had created. They glanced around the communities and faced the field of battle for Christ. Ready to evangelize and change lives the students got ready for another day of work. Once again strong arms and hands came together to paint houses and nail shingles. The students endured the heat and excelled to the best of their abilities.

As worksites came under wraps, students and adults again desire to evangelize. Many of the worksites came to completion and their hearts still seek souls for Christ. Returning to the high school they entered into praise for God. Their hearts sang to Jesus as they praised him. God’s light was so impacting and shining through every participant. On Wednesday night a participant accepted Christ into his heart as his Lord and Savior. Rejoice in the Lord for we have another person in the body of Christ. World Changers Barnwell/Bamberg is on mission for God to save souls and evangelism is splurging like wildflowers. God is in control!

As the humidity rises like a hot shower steam, the students work hard in completing their projects. Throwing shingle upon shingle, brushing paint upon walls until the job is done. As the students devote some much of their time to helping others Wednesday arrives with the relaxation of an afternoon off.DSCN1294
Heading back to the high school the tiredness of the heat wears off. Like the energizer bunny the kids jump back into action to get ready for an afternoon of fun. Heading from Augusta to Aiken the students ram the malls, parks, lakes and restaurants. They embrace each other’s company and dance in the atmosphere of laughter.

The students work hard for God as they transform lives. Outstanding Job World Changers Barnwell/Bamberg!!!! The journey is almost complete.

Day Two! How is God Using You?

Rising before the crack of dawn stumbles in the WC participants for another exciting day.  Day two…that is! As the students began to wake up from a good breakfast meal, conversations and laughter starts to stir echoes in the cafeteria.  Ready for another day of work and evangelism, the students hop in their vans and head towards their worksites.

As the sun breathes heavily upon every workers neck, construction of homes and reconstruction for Christ in the communities continue to take place. After a positive and great day of work the student return for an evening they’ll always remember.
As the student finish up showers and meals they prepare for the Concert of Prayer. Soft strings of the guitar plays and dimmed lights welcome them into an atmosphere for worship. Voices rise to the ceiling as they sing out their heart to God. The students pray and lay out their transgressions before the Lord. From writing on papers to lifted hands and kneeled worshippers, the worship atmosphere paints a picture of true praise and prayer to our Lord and Savior.

As the anointing of God soothed the spirit and uplifted the soul, God’s holy power took control. The student began to see how set apart for God they really are. God is using them mightily to share the gospel. How is God using you?

And…Blast OFFFF!!!World Changers Races Out!!

Waking up to a dark blue sky, World Changers Barnwell/Bamberg strap on their boots for a journey they’ll never forget. Rising with ambition and joy the students blast off from the Great Send-off! The students shout for joy and scream with excitement as they praise God for a journey they’ll never forget.  Loaded with hammers, nail aprons and paint brushes, the students shoot off to their worksites.
As the coolness of the morning eased away with the slap of the sun, the student began working hard. Shingles flying hard hit the ground as rooftops are being ripped up. Like snowing white on the ground, painting chips splatter the grass. Salty sweat drips down the backs and faces of every of participants. They work hard and swiftly knowing they can do all things through Christ whom strengthens them.
As the students work hard the renovation begins. The students start construction but seek to evangelize about God for the reconstruction of Christ in sinner lives. The students race back to the school for a wonderful evening after a first days work. They socialize, clean up and eat a meal that unbuckles your belt with satisfaction. The students enter the auditorium for worship to thank God for a wonderful start. WC Barnwell/Bamberg Blast Off for God! This is just the start!!!
