After a summer of transition\u2014 where our Ministry Director and some amazing volunteers moved on\u2014we are thrilled to announce that our regular programming is back on. Praise be to God!<\/strong><\/p>\n

For three nights a week our fitness centre is once again filled with sweaty teenagers: exercising, playing tag, and more. It has taken some adjusting due to having less staff, but the volunteers have been absolutely amazing, and God continues to bless us.<\/p>\n

We have a younger girl who has been coming to program for a couple of years now. As she is Muslim, she very politely declines to read the Bible or engage in most of our Jesus conversations. Regardless, it\u2019s been a pleasure getting to know her. Recently, we saw God impact her in a very tangible way. During one of our Chase\u00a0 Tag nights, she was dealing with a hurt knee, something that had been bothering her the previous week as well, so we decided to take a moment to
\npray for her.<\/p>\n

\u201cAsk and it will be <\/strong><\/em>given to you; seek and <\/strong><\/em>you will find; knock <\/strong><\/em>and the door will be <\/strong><\/em>opened to you. For <\/strong><\/em>everyone who asks <\/strong><\/em>receives; the one who<\/strong><\/em>
\nseeks finds; and to the <\/strong><\/em>one who knocks, the <\/strong><\/em>door will be opened.\u201d – Matthew7:7-8<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We had prayed for her knee the previous week, and nothing had happened. This time, as I sat down with her again, I had posed a challenge: if Jesus healed her knee, she would have no excuse not to believe that He at least existed. And she agreed. I prayed for God to heal her, as I did the previous week. While she said a little bit of pain went away, it was clearly still hurting. I then asked if someone else wanted to pray. One boy sitting next to us agreed and casually offered a swift prayer: “God please heal her in the next few minutes.” He then ran off to join the game of tag.<\/p>\n

Later, as the night was drawing to a close, we were going around sharing prayer requests, she suddenly perked up. In a slightly confused tone, she
\nexclaimed that her knee was totally fine! God had healed her knee! I immediately reminded her of the agreement: she now had to believe in Jesus. She
\nagreed!<\/p>\n

This was such a cool moment, not just because I got to witness God physically heal this girl, but because she is now one step closer to believing in the
\nKingdom of God. Please be praying for this girl!<\/p>\n
