Teachers-in Murietta-Dare to Dream Big

Ben Wallace, a 4th Grade Teacher in Murrieta, has 60 in his Good News Club. He has had the privilege of leading several children to the Lord. He writes, “Never before have I felt such hope and encouragement! Each day brings new potential for conveying the love of Christ to the students in my classroom.” Ben and Rod Amstutz, a colleague who attended the Daniel Weekend and also teaches a 4th Grade class at the same school, made plans to start a student mentorship program together. They have been able to share the vision with their district superintendent and are praying that once the program is in place, it will receive the backing to be implemented district-wide.

God is moving through teachers who dare to dream BIG and trust Him! Thanks for praying and giving to make this possible.

The results have been exciting! Ruth Kouyoumdjian, a kindergarten teacher in Pasadena, has been praying at the flagpole of her school every morning since she attended the Daniel Weekend in October 2010. She has been joined by instructional aids, parents, fellow teachers and students. The After School Good News Club, which she started three years ago, has doubled in size and now includes 19% of the student body.
