Stepping into God’s Plan

2008 CYIAer’s: Muthoni, Rebekah, and Chelsea

Christian Youth In Action (CYIA) is a time when we challenge students to step forward into God’s plan for their lives.
One of our students, Senior High Graduate-Rebekah Pena, recently returned after 12 weeks of attending the Children’s Ministries Institute (CMI) at our CEF headquarters in Missouri. This experience was a significant step into God’s plan for her.
While at CMI, Rebekah learned about CEF ministries, sharpened her skills in teaching children and developed valuable friendships. She said the highlight was getting to know others who had dedicated their lives to serving God. Those around her strengthened her faith as she sought the Lord’s direction. Most importantly she learned to put God first in making decisions. She recommends CMI to other high school graduates, looking to prepare themselves for future ministry.
This will be my sixth year on staff at CYIA Training School and it has been such a joy to watch students, like Rebekah, step into God’s big plans for them.
