This is my opening farewell...
Well..I am off to spend the weekend with two bus loads of middle school and some high school kids. Aheevay, (something that "like butter" lady would say on Saturday Night Live) you may ask, have you lost your mind?, ..Well, some would say my mind was lost, but I am so excited about this weekend. These kids absolutely energize me...these little precious souls are embarking on a journey again this year, that last year ended in tragedy with the loss of one of our precious little boys. "Wreck." Man, that word will alway conjur memories of what our church family went through last year.
We covet your prayers for a safe trip and for us as sponsors to be ever sensitive to these kids, also for their hearts to be open as God opens His heavens and rains down love, acceptance, encouragement on their little hearts. I know it will be a downpour.
And....I am not so presumptious to think that this weekend, though it is a youth conference, is just for the youth. I know God has something to tell me at this Winterfest and maybe I'll just let you in on it when I get back.
I love you all and God bless your weekend!
