Becky Rogowski - A Quiet Shooting Star at YWAP

          Some folks are underground visionaries. They see the big picture and know how to make the best of every situation. The see and do what needs to be done, but they're seldom seen themselves.
          Becky Rogowski is an underground visionary. She's one of the Directors of Youth With A Purpose in charge of Teen Action Night at The Bread of Life. Every Thursday night without fail, Becky is helping to oversee almost every aspect of the program.
          We don't have many pictures of her and she never calls attention to herself. She quickly moves behind the scenes making sure everything is in order. The picture above shows Becky moving behind a volleyball net as kids are having fun with her in their midst. At YWAP, we believe in a "Blended-Leadership" style of management. Many leaders are part of the backbone of a program that is changing many lives. Becky leads with a backbone of courage, seldom seen by visitors.
          She has a great relationship with the 12-18 yr. old's in the youth group. They come for fun, exercise, Life Lessons from a guest speaker, Biblical Leadership and great food. Becky ushers them through all of that and more. She gets personally involved as a mentor with a caring heart and a listening ear.
          On most nights, both of her sons are with her as participants in Teen Action Night. They also volunteer to help when needed. They serve food and help clean up. They also set up chairs after the volleyball equipment is taken down so the building can be ready for church services. There's a lot of work involved and many hands get the job done quickly. The point here is that not only is Becky a great leader, mentor and volunteer, she's also a phenomenal mother to her sons.
Physical fitness and teaching forgiveness can be fun with great mentors like Becky.
          We are honored to have Becky Rogowski as an underground visionary who goes the extra mile without being asked or caring about who gets credit for a job well done. I can imagine if Jesus was the head of this outfit (and He is!), I'm sure He'd be telling Becky: "Well done, good and faithful servant!" Those words are meant to be spoken on earth as they are in heaven! Thanks Becky for all you do, we appreciate you. Jesus loves you and so do we.
These are  Booklets that help young people learn Biblical Leadership.
Thanks for your time. Go do something nice for somebody. Jesus loves you and so do we. #JLYASDW #ywap4God
