“I walked out of the classroom, sighed, and wondered if these first graders would ever listen. This was the second week in a row this class had been disruptive. That week I prayed for wisdom how to teach them and keep their attention.
The following week we were headed back to the same school, but this time I was soloing. How could this possibly work? …”

//The mission of In The Gap is to train and equip youth and young adults to effectively influence children, model integrity, be positive leaders, and
passionately love Jesus Christ.
Our goal is to guide young individuals to ‘stand in the gap’, show people the ways of Christ, make a difference, be salt, and spread light in areas where only darkness is found. When the Lord searches for someone to stand in the gap, we want Him to say, “I can and will use you because your heart is right towards me.” Psalm 34:15 says, “The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.” Our desire is to raise up individuals who will seek to transform their community and nation, one life at a time.// – ITG

Check out ITG’s exciting two week Operation Impact!
“At the end of each school year children are rewarded for showing good behavior, bringing a Bible, and faithfully attending Bible Club. We wanted to give you the opportunity to be a part of rewarding these students! We need around 100 three to five-dollar prizes before May 15th.”
Ideas for Bible club prizes:
{sidewalk chalk, jump-rope, bubbles, soccer balls, basketballs, Frisbee, beach balls, pool goggles, backpacks, bats and balls, bouncy balls, markers, painting kits, jewelry kits, notebooks, Crayons, simple card or board games. Please avoid movie characters and weapons so that we have more flexibility to take them into the schools.}
