Feeling a little sleepy
The weekends been really good so far! I've been super encouraged by the response of students to the call of surrender. We've had some good speakers and I find our group asking "what does it look like to really surrender? like surrender everything, to God". There's been a few "a-ha" moments, lots if haha moments as we take the time to just play together, and moments of real heart surrender. I look forward to walking with these students even after the week end is over. And I think the group will be ready for over at the end of the day. Some of us are starting to feel just a little sleepy :)

Almost famous
One of the young guys with us this weekend almost became famous!! Ok not really, but he did get a chance to play an improv game with panic squad. It was a lot of fun to watch one of our own on stage. And he actually did a good job!
Here's a shot of Nathan getting his taste if fame :)

7:00 am
7:00 am feels like it has come earlier than any other 7am I have ever met.
Last nights kick off events at YC are now behind us, and I'm already encouraged by how God is moving. We were challenged by speaker David Nasser last night to consider if we have truly surrendered our lives to Jesus or if we are just "playing good Christian". I think this weekend will be challenging for the students, and myself. I hope it is!
Here's a picture of 16000 glow sticks during the kick off event.

YC 2012
In just under 24 hours I'll be packed up and headed out with 11 Awesome youth and 1 awesome volunteer. We will take off to Edmonton for the weekend where we will participate in YC 2012. This is a great opportunity for me, I love that my group is small because it means lots of connection time with the students. The theme for this year is Surrender, and it truly is our hearts desire that through the events of this weekend that students will connect with a God who loves them very much and surrender in a very real life their lives to him. Please consider praying for us as we spend our weekend listing to loud music, motivational and passionate speakers, laughing and hanging out! Please pray that students who don't yet know Christ as their redeemer would come to know him this weekend, and please pray for those that do to be drawn into a deeper relationship with him. I'll keep you posted on the weekends events, It's sure to be a great time!!
