Summer Interns: Brad Simmons
Wednesday, July 1, 2009

This summer HOKSBA has three teams working throughout the association. One team is serving at Aviator Church, one is working with our Hispanic church plants, and one is working throughout the other churches in the association.

The association team has been in Wichita since, May 29. The two college interns are local, but the high school interns are from across the country: Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas & Wisconsin. They have spent much of their time working alongside Loren Phippen.

Their first week in Wichita they helped Victory Baptist promote their Vacation Bible School. The next week, Victory held their VBS with the help of a mission team from outside the area. Their second week they helped Crossroads Community in Oaklawn go door to door and let people know about the new church. At the end of the week, they helped out at two of our Good Neighbor Centers: Cottage Grove and Westside. They also went out with people from Pleasantview Baptist Church, and Indian Southern Baptist Church to help them promote their VBS.

The rest of their summer will include Kids Kamp and helping at least four more Vacation Bible Schools!

During this time the interns are going through a workbook called "Listen to My Life." They are being encouraged to look back over their lives to see how God has been at work, and how God has shaped them to be used by him in unique ways.
