Leadership Training for Christ April 14-16

Church
“Jesus told them, ‘The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.’” (‭‭Luke‬ ‭10‬:‭2‬) Children’s hearts and minds are fertile soil that we, as Christian parents, teachers, and family members, need to intentionally and purposefully cultivate in order to reap a harvest of spiritual maturity and moral excellence in our families.   One way we approach this goal at Linder is through participation in Leadership Training for Christ, an annual event that is held for the northwest region in Richland, Washington.  About 30 of our children, plus family members and other adults, traveled to Richland to attend the Leadership Training for Christ convention, where over 175 children from 3rd to 12th grade participated in many different…
