Most of our Element students and staff have went on the amazing, life-altering Cambodia mission trip to serve the students and children there. Thank you for the students and staff volunteering their amazing efforts to serve the Lord and the community. Thank you for everyone’s prayers which meant a lot to all of the Element students.
Be sure to check out more events at our upcoming section (located at our home page). Element has a lot more in store for this coming fall and winter!
Some of our students and staff are in Chicago joining Dare2Share’s Lead the Cause conference this week. They’ve been getting trained on how to share the Gospel effectively and hearing a lot of inspiring testimonies. They’ve also been meeting Christian youth from all over the country! Thankful that they get to experience all this - please pray for them!
Here’s a photo of our team at Wheaton College.
If you joined us for our Spring Welcome night - hope you had a great time! There was great food, many new faces, and fun icebreakers! We also got to hear stories from Josie, Johnny, Janet, Daniel, Sammy, and Justin about how they encountered God and became Christian. Thanks to these presenters for vulnerably and honestly sharing their stories. After the personal testimonies, we all enjoyed a time of chatting around bonfires, eating from a chocolate fountain and playing basketball and volleyball.
Every year a group of students, generally the 12th graders, graduates from high school. Element held a farewell party to cherish the senior students with photos and memories/testimonies. Keep praying for the seniors going through their next steps in college or life.
But last but not least,
Element is getting new staff (more info coming soon). And sadly but excitingly, Byron Woo and Renee are joining the new Stories team for church, so, they’ll be leaving Element. Let’s pray for them for a smooth transition and pray for the people who are going to hear their stories.
Every year Element holds church-wide fundraiser for summer mission trips. Element High School goes to Cambodia, while Middle School goes to Mexico, sharing the love and the truth of Jesus Christ to children, women, and men.
A lot of church members showed up to the Run-4-Missions event for the Element students wanting to go to the mission trips. It was a fun time for the runners and the students. Keep us in your prayers!
This week we continued our study in the book of John with a message from Matt then we went out by small groups. The juniors had a blast playing wiffle ball!
