Why I love my ministry:  Kids are Iike little excited sponges! They can soak up so much information and are so pure-hearted – giving them an edge on understanding the goodness of God. They almost always come excited to learn and asking a million questions! They are just so enthusiastic. also love watching kids grow! Ya know, when you haven’t seen them in a couple weeks and they walk in and it looks like they’ve grown 3 feet??? I not only get to see that, but I get to see the spiritual growth of a young believer. I’ve been able to get involved with the lives of so many of our young Wildewood families, and it has been a blessing!
