From the BAIS Chaplain’s Desk

When we think of a wall, we mostly think of a very useful structure. They are great for creating boundaries, security, and privacy when it comes to our personal lives and possessions. However, walls can also be tools of isolation that are built either to keep people in or keep people out such as the case with the Berlin Wall that physically and ideologically divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989.

All of us have walls in our lives that we build to protect ourselves from the potential pain of letting others get too close or know too much about us. These walls can be healthy as long as we allow the right people in. We were all created to love and be loved and to know and be known and that cannot happen if no one gets beyond our walls.

When it comes to matters of faith, we often build walls as well. These walls can be very unhealthy and create a false sense of security and isolate us from others. They often serve to protect our private faith from becoming public knowledge. Our faith was never meant for isolation but rather to be shared with others through our expressions of love and service.

Next week BAIS students will serve others all over the city through an annual BAIS initiative called Week Without Walls (WWW). This is more than just an impactful week of ministry to our community. It is an opportunity to cultivate a heart of service in our students as they share God’s truth through word and action. To say it another way, we hope that this Week Without Walls will help students to live a Life Without Walls when it comes to their faith.

I want to say, thank you to every parent for partnering with us to see this years WWW be successful. Your assistance with the transportation needs for our groups has been amazing and it is very much appreciated. We also are appreciative for your ongoing prayer support. Please continue to pray for 2018 WWW to be a safe and fruitful time of ministry for our entire community.

Blessings,
Jason Whitehurst
Chaplain
