Off the ground, We have launched the third UDTS!

Katrina and I are deeply grateful to be part of the third Youth With A Mission Tyler’s Urban Discipleship Training School. This year we are running the UDTS in Rogers Park Chicago. Rogers Park is a gateway imagrant neighborhood in northern Chicago. The population of Chicago proper (within City limits) is about three million. Within those three million people there are over 200 ethnicity, this is nearly “all the world” in one city. Now in Rogers Park, and surrounding neighborhoods within a five mile radius of our apartment building there are over 150 of those 200+ ethnicity! This is amazing, it creates a perfect enviroment to run a urban missions  training school!!

Last sunday on the 25th of September we had 12 UDTS students, and five student staff arrive. These young passionate youth are excited about seeing the gospel of Jesus Christ spread through Chicago, and other cities in the United States. This week is the first formal week of teaching. The topic is The Fear of The Lord. We are exicted to explore the character and nature of God. Then get the chance to spread that into those living around us.

 

Thank you For praying and financially partnering with us!
