Week 3 of Programming is over and hopefully it's time to get a little rest and relax this weekend. It seemed as though this week was full of a lot of tension and stress but as always God was there with us every step of the way. It's amazing how great the staff I am a part of it. Literally, we help pick each other up when we are down, it's more than a job. YouthWorks is a family. It's incredible.
Anyway, one of the highlights of the week was a group from Minnesota. They had a "Party Bus," this is code for a really old ghetto bus that has been revived and may even be considered hipster. I really bonded with some of those kids. There were also 2 guys from a group from Nebraska named Trent and Aaron. We quickly bonded over our love for the word Yall and country music. It was a match made in heaven. Even though they aren't brothers they looked a lot alike so it was hard for me to remember their names at first...so I called them Cowboys...and it just stuck. I loved hanging out with those guys!
I closed the week by improving to Taylor Swifts "Love Story." Meaning, I put it on my ipod and instead of telling a bed time story to all the girls I went in and played that and improved words to make it "Mission Trip Story" instead. It was quite epic.
I am sorry to keep it so short this week but I am just too tired to go into detail about all the happenings of this YW week. If you would like to see some pictures you can check them out on facebook and if you have any other questions just message me!
Please continue to pray for my team and I as we venture into a new week. We are at the half way point of the summer and it is clear that fatigue and metal exhaustion are starting to set in. Pray that God restores our energy and our hearts!
Thanks for all the support. Yall are the best!
I love you all.
