Ellyanna is 12 and lives in Bowdoinham. She’s in 7th grade, and has been involved with Good News Clubs for about 4 years. “My stepmom said I should go try it… I liked being around other kids.” Elly is very good with kids, and is excited to tell me that her mother is expecting twins, a boy and a girl. Life has changed a lot for her since that first visit. “I asked Jesus into my heart… the second time I came to Good News Club.” she says with a smile. She helps with memory verses and games with her friend, Donna Woerter’s club since she is now part of the Junior Leadership Initiative. “I love the games and the songs.” She has really enjoyed the training she’s received and the fun the junior leadership all has when they get together. This summer and fall she plans to continue helping Donna out where she can, and hopes to come to Camp Good News for a week of camp!
