YOUTH

Participate in the SIZE POLL located at the bottom of this blog on the far right. TWO MORE DAYS TILL THE POLL CLOSES.

We hosted fifty student leaders at our home this evening for a stuffed shell Italian dinner. Originally the night was supposed to be in our yard, but it was wet out so we transformed the garage into a little restaurant with some pretty nice ambience --- Christmas lights swagged overhead, covered tables, firepits and tiki torches --- all right there in the garage. Lots of fun.

The student leaders were taken on a retreat by our three youth pastors --- kind of a 'progressive retreat' - four different surprise locations. Our house was the final surprise stop over two days.

I had a chance to talk to them about what KFA expects from them -- how they can help us fulfill our mission. Then we had a dryboard brainstorming session about how we can better reach our community for Christ. I also asked them what kinds of things they'd like to hear communicated from the main speakers on the weekends.

Enlightening.

Great group of student leaders.
Great youth pastors.
Blessed.

And you be blessed too.
