2. Show that you have a personal daily devotional life for at least six months.
One way to show this is by keeping a devotional journal. Summarize what you have read, making sure to record any Bible verses or other reading material studied. Be sure to record the date as well.
If you like, you can record your journal on a blog so that others may read it on the Internet. You may even plant a seed this way without knowing it!

If you are to undertake a mjor landscaping project in a public area, it is essential that you get permission from whatever authority is responsible for the park's operation.

(4) Puppet ministry
The target audience for this ministry is young children. A Puppet ministry program could be all or part of a Vacation Bible School. Talk with your church's VBS leader to explore options. See the Puppetry and Puppetry - Advanced honors for details of setting up a ministry like this.
