Disciples for Tomorrow
Hey, Chris Jones here with a brief update on the work environment in
Tomorrowland Terrace in Magic Kingdom. Six of us have been working in
the kitchen for six weeks now and we have had interactions with most of
the cast members there. I would say we've talked to 50/70 members that
work at our location. We've developed relationships with about 35 of
these people alone: getting to talk about their lives, why they're
working in Disney, and developing community. We've developed fairly
strong friendships with about 15 coworkers our age mostly. We've hung
out with them outside of work and brought them to some of our project
events. What we've come to learn about our friends and most of the rest
of our coworkers is that the majority of them believe in God and more
than half claim to be Christians! Our spiritual conversations have
revealed the relationship with Christ they really have and a lack of
community makes it hard for them to grow. Our mission in these last 2
weeks of work is to ask those about their faith who we haven't learned
yet and share the Gospel. For those that know Jesus, give them practical
tools to grow in their faith and help lead others after we're gone.
It's a serious mission, but God is presenting us with the opportunities
so we are responding. Prayer for stronger disciples!
