Week of 12/02/24
DECEMBER ESLR: This month’s ESLR is “Trained Ambassadors”. Trained Ambassadors are students who employ effective verbal and written communication skills to clearly express ideas, truths, and convictions as spirit-filled representatives of the gospel of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:20) “Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.”
