Baptism...Payday

Isn't it funny how youth ministry is often a thankless job. We may never see some of the fruit of our labor, but somehow someway something makes it all worth it. When I have been asked why I do my job, the only answer I have is, for that one thing. You don't know what that one thing is until you do it, but it speaks loud and clear. Today I got to baptize 4 of my students in front of the entire church. Man that's better than payday. This in some weird, cosmic way, gives meaning to my job. So my brothers and sisters, paid or non paid youth workers, hold on to those moments. May you see that this is what we do our jobs for!

May the Peace of Christ be with you
