Because I got to hang out with you guys all day yesterday, I had to OF COURSE tape the Olympic Snowboarding! (so I have been watching the tape ALL day while peering out behind my laptop!) I had to put up props to my man Shaun White who took the gold after coming back from 7th place in the qualifying round!! USA took the gold and the bronze this year...In 2002 the swept gold, silver, and bronze!


Well, I know you guys like pictures...but I have to apologize!! No SLIDESHOW this week!! I shot a wedding and didn't even have time to dump the pics off my camera prior to Sunday night. Sorry no photos of Sunday night :(

Whoa!!

Thank you to the 15(!) youth that dropped in for our first Clear Bible Study!

I do want to apologize...We were planning on an intimate growth teaching time where you could all participate and learn together. We planned for only a handful of you!! So please, stick with us as we work out these growing pains :)

Next week you will walk into some worship time, and then break into groups that will be more to your learning level. I heard from the younger people, "It was way over my head, Kevin made no sense", to the older people, "That was easy", to the middle agers, "That was juuuuuust right." So, if it was too difficult, don't worry, we'll make it better for you! And you older kids, I'll keep pushing you and we'll learn some amazing things!

Thank you for blessing me with all of your presence tonight :)

Boys, I would like you to see a comment that your competition posted on the Forum...

"21-7 Steelers.....and by the way, that's a totally uneducated guess because I didn't follow football this year....shame on me :~)".

Yes, that was Heather...the girl who kicked all your butts! Heather will soon be jamming with her $15 iTunes Gift Card.

One-Eighty Slideshow!
Large Group Slideshow!

Ok, so our photographer, Lauren VQ got excited at Youth Group and took 567 pictures! Sooo, we have 3 slideshows this week!

Bill Nantz was our awesome speaker. Remember his challenges? Choose one friend and decide to make your friendship like David and Jonathon's...take some time to read 1 Samuel 20 and 2 Samuel 1 to see what it will take. Have you taken some time to make that step? Check out the passages, they are awesome!

The first slideshow is CrossTrainers, the second is One-Eighty, the third is our Large Group time. Click on the above corresponding images to see the show!

Be sure to jump into the Forum as well, leave some comments about the night, the slideshows and chat it up with your buds. Click on "Blackberry Youth Forum" in the 'Links' section to the right. Free registration, and free loads of fun :)
