“To Jesus My Father In Heaven,”

Jan '25
December 2024 was such a blessing… It was a packed youth house on our birthday party for Jesus with 31 young people and many asking to pray before we ate. This has become more common in recent days. From lots of kiddos and new volunteers arriving to some amazing conversation with parents who are asking more questions about Jesus. Amid the busyness and laughter, tears and hugs, I found this letter:
“To Jesus my Father in Heaven, I have loved you for two years now. Even though I have never seen you, you mean so much to me. I know I have…” – Lexi
This brought me to tears with a clear understanding of why I do the work I do here at 71Five. It is for this young lady who is not only in love with Jesus but pursuing an intimate relationship with Him. She has now embarked on a journey through the Bible in a year. Were you as curious as I was to what Lexi wrote next? No matter what, how she began her letter to Jesus was so pure. It is because of you that makes it possible to share the Gospel. Thank you for your support of 71Five.
