Verses for the week =)

Youth Group Key Verse of the month:
Q: It's not a religion, it's a relationship?
A: "He has shown you, oh man, what is good. Now what does the Lord require of you? To live justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God."
Micah 6:8

Youth Group to share:
Q: Does God love us no matter what?
A: "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:38-39


Girls' Bible study:
Q: What is a 'Godly' woman?
A: "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."
Proverbs 31:30

YAY! I'm glad you all were able to come that did! It was awesome to get to spend that time with you all and I'm very proud of all of you! =D

At the Seattle Center fountain =)


I'll be praying for each of you as you 'Shred the Gnar' (Go Big or Go Home) this week! ;-)

This Friday we'll be sharing with the adults about our trip and digging deeper into what the 'Gnar' is that we are supposed to be Shreddin' ;-) as well as catching up with those who weren't able to join us for the trip- this is an awesome time to bring a friend with you to youth group. A chance for them to see you practice Shredding the Gnar, and perhaps catch a wave themselves =) bringing a friend to YG to meet your friends, hang out, play and talk can be a good way to start sharing with them if you're having trouble breaking the ice about faith.

BUT!
Don't forget- youth group, Dare 2 Share, Seattle and church aren't the only places to Shred the Gnar for Jesus... the biggest waves are out there: talking to your friends, not letting a chance go by to introduce them to your Savior ... whether or not they come to YG =)

See you Friday, talk to you sooner!

BTW- if anyone is bored this week, I'll be around almost every day and you're welcome to come hang out with us, play Wii, hit a park etc :-)

Have an awesome Spring Break!


Collecting canned food in Seattle!
5000+ teens collected 7 tons of food for the Salvation Army on Saturday- enough to fill their need for that area for a year!!!

PS: please pass this on to those who do not have FB =) thanks!

Dare 2 Share

I'm so excited! Mostly because the kids are excited. It's our first REAL trip as a group, and I'm a little nervous :-S This is an awesome opportunity for them and I'm so glad they are ALL going!

Maiden voyage- WHOO!

I think I have everything in order: place to stay, transportation, chaperone's, tickets, food, packing lists out, permission slips, kids excited, car playlists to get ready for concert, small group curriculum, fundraisers, prayer support....
....am I missing anything?

Monotony of the Cliff

On the edge,
Where to go?
A bird in fledge,
Or falling stone?

Take the path,
Stay this course,
Do the math,
And we'll endorse.

What's to choose?
My life so planned.
Lots to lose,
If I don't stand.
