Man, the concert was AMAZING Saturday night! We had tons of teenagers helping and taking ownership in putting on the concert! The bands did an amazing job and we made a great connection! We were able to hang out with them until late night talking and just laughing together! They are great guys doing a great work! The students were blown away by the concert, they had a BLAST to say the least! I had students calling me, emailing me, etc... saying how much they loved it!!! What a great opportunity it was to have EleventySeven come in and their opening band, the Switch!
Well today I got the opportunity to speak at the high school during lunch for youth alive! I had about 15 minutes to share about salvation & Jesus! So it was a great time of hanging out and speaking into the lives of these awesome young people!!! I love going up to the school for lunches and things it makes such a huge impact of these teenagers to be part of THEIR world! So many times we ask them to step into OUR churches. but sometimes we have to go to THEIR places too in order to reach them and show them they matter to us and GOD!!!
Tonight we are ending our 12 week leadership training we have been doing every Tuesday night! We have taught hard, covered much vision and ground going through lots and lots of things! We have really built a solid leadership foundation! We just opened it up to any and everybody who wanted to get more involved in the life of Journey. We had an average of 50 - 75 people each week as we taught on several different things! Tonight we are ending it with a big pitch in dinner to just hang out and end with a bang!
