50 NEW AIM STUDENTS ARRIVE ON MISSION FIELD

God was gracious in allowing AIM to receive, train and send 50 young men and women to 12 mission points around the globe this last May. For the next year and half these young, willing disciples will give themselves to mission churches, languages and cultures. They will grow spiritually, develop relationally, and emerge with a greater awareness of God's will for their lives.

AIM is about helping to position young men and women for healthy transformation; transformation more into the likeness of Jesus. It is our prayerful belief that if our students leave Lubbock with a greater desire and heart to love and serve as Christ did, this program is a success and more importantly, a glory to God. Our prayer is that regarless of where AIM students go or what they do after the program, that they will continue with a lifestyle that glorifies and honors God.

I praise God for young people willing to serve, learn and simply love people as Jesus did. It challenges and humbles me. It is amazing to witness the transforming power of God's word in their lives. I humbly ask that you prayer for these young, tender warriors as they give themselves to becoming more like Christ and less like the world. They are not perfect - in fact, they struggle just as we all do - but please pray for their faith, perseverance and fruit.
