The goal of this event was to get teens excited about our upcoming Camp Elienai week in July. We then traveled to preach a winter youth camp for Temple Baptist Church in Fredericksburg, VA. It was a true blessing to see some of the teens make decisions to live for Christ. From there we went to Nevis (in the Caribbean) and attended a pastor’s conference called the West Indies Baptist Fellowship. I had the privilege of teaching 2 sessions for youth leaders. This was a fulfillment of one of my goals to assist youth pastors in the Caribbean. Kwa m e & J e nn ife r Se lv e r
February through April was primarily a time to assist the ministry here in Nassau. As I stated in the last prayer letter, I am now the assistant/youth pastor of New Testament Baptist Church and vice principal of Teleos Christian School. My wife plays the piano in church, teaches a singles women Bible study, and assists me in counseling and youth work. She also teaches computers for the school. Please continue to pray that God gives us the strength and wisdom to accomplish the amount of work that we have to do. In May we traveled to Chattanooga, TN to preach a four-day youth conference.
