Welcome HOPErs!

Hi there, and welcome to While You Wait Ministries. Before you scroll to the next thing, take a breath. Your waiting season is not wasted time—it's a divine classroom where God is preparing you for what's ahead. Here, we gather to remember that hope still works, healing still happens, and you're not waiting alone.
You're right where you're meant to be. Let's wait well together.

With love and expectancy,
Rev. Dr. Lael C. Melville

You Are a Friend

Hey everyone, and welcome to While You Wait Wednesday! Today, let’s reflect on a powerful truth: “I am a friend of God.”

Remember the “Friend of Jesus” video? It reminds us that our relationship with Jesus is deeply personal. He calls you a friend. Take a moment now and affirm it: “I am a friend of Jesus.” Let that sink in.

Being a friend of Jesus means we also learn how to be a friend like Jesus. How did He show friendship? With love, compassion, and by showing up.

Here’s your call to action this week:

  1. Reach Out: Connect with someone you know loves Jesus. Share encouragement and let them pour into you. Friendship is a two-way street!
  2. Show Up: Think of someone who might be struggling. Reach out to them with an act of kindness this week. A simple text, a coffee, or just listening can make a huge difference.
  3. Connect: Want to learn more about building community while you wait? Join the While You Wait Ministries community! We’re here to support each other on this journey. [Link to While You Wait Ministries community/website]

You are not alone. You are a friend of God, and you are surrounded by a community that cares. Have a blessed While You Wait Wednesday!

Blessings,

Dr. Melville✨
