Did I Forget To Mention?

Did I forget to mention that our group is HILARIOUS? So, at camp we have different teams for spirit points. They are simply broken up by color. Churches will typically come with lots of clothes and things to go along with their color for spirit. Our kids? Oh no. They have to take that one step further. A couple of days before camp, most of them gathered at my house to come up with some special themes that they would dress like during camp. Monday night they had a black out night because we had made shirts that were black so they just said let's make all of our clothes, black. Ok, I get that. But then Tuesday night they decided to make that "Formal" night. Yeah, formal night. Like I'm going to a sweet 16 party or prom! So we had our kids decked out on Tuesday night. Everyone thought it was great! But then last night, we topped it. Our kids had decided to make it Cowboys and Indians night! Yeah. So we had a whole lot of cowboys and cowgirls and one Indian (Maureen). The rest of camp was basically saying, "why didn't we think of that?" Our kids are awesome!

Last night was a very challenging, but needed message. Our speaker spoke that if we are saturating ourselves with God and His Word and in communication with Him in prayer, then we won't need any gimicks or motivation to go and tell people about Jesus. Telling people about Jesus will just start coming out of us because we've been filled up with Him, and now it is overflowing. Our students were really challenged with this as was I, and plan on coming back and challenging the rest of our church with this. What a great night! I hope you'll tune in with us at 10am and 7pm today at www.liftstudentministries.com to watch us live!
