Our leaders:

Last February 13th we had a special meeting with our student leaders, who were committed to help us this past semester.
Well the students leaders are the ones who help us with some decisions, they also give new ideas for ministry.
We meet once a week with them, and this group is also a place were they can grow in leadership and also learn how ministry works, etc.

So now, that their commitment is over, our idea is to challenge them to move forward by leading a Bible study and doing discipleship. Some of these leaders are staying on the team with us, so that they can teach the new students joining this team. So in this special meeting we thanked all of them and encouraged them, we played some games and had fun.




Kelly Maldonado:

One of these leaders is Kelly Maldonado, who I talked to let her know that we wanted to encourage her to lead a Bible study and continue with the discipleship with the girls that she had. We really would prefer her to stay in the team working closer with us.

As I was explaining to her our ideas about her, she told me that the idea of leaving the team made her sad, but she really wants to help the ministry and that she doesn´t need to be on the team to do so, ¨I learned a lot on this team so I want others to learn too,¨ she said. Amazing!! She told me that she was going to be available to help us.

Besides that she shared with me about the discipleship that she is having with two girls. This was kind of funny because sometimes when she wanted to encourage them from the Bible but she couldn´t find the book in the Bible and the girls usually said is before this or that book.
She also told me "God is great," when these girls asked me a question that I have never thought about, He gives the answer to me so I can help them!!
I really love these girls she continued, and more than being a discipler she wants to be their friend, ¨I am just learning how to do that. I have no clue how to do it but I am trusting God for that,¨ she concluded.
Personally Kelly encourages me to trust God and share with other girls His love, I am so happy to see a girl loving and trusting in this way, I just can praise the Lord for her!!
