If you've ever volunteered at a Vacation Bible School, children's ministry, or church camp, you've seen how God can use one child to impact an entire community.
That's exactly what happened in the life of six-year-old Fyodor from Kazakhstan.
Fyodor is a bright, creative boy who loves to build, draw, and sculpt. When he attended a Summer of Hope Bible camp led by our School Without Walls leaders, he not only enjoyed creative activities that helped nurture his gifts—he also put his faith into action.
Inspired by the example of his parents, who serve their community by providing clean drinking water and sharing the Gospel with their neighbors, Fyodor boldly shared the Good News of Jesus with two other boys at camp, Ibrahim and Oleg. He even invited them to attend church with him.
The three boys lived on the same street but had never met before. Through camp, new friendships were formed, families connected, and opportunities to share Christ began to grow.
Stories like this remind us that God can use anyone, regardless of age, to make an eternal impact.
Have you ever seen a child from your church, VBS, or summer ministry make a surprising impact on someone else's life? We'd love to hear that story in the comments.
