Final Night

19 07 2007

Wow! I am tired and ready to be back at Element. I don’t know how I ever did youth ministry. It’s gotta be more tiring than church planting. The camp (Bear Tooth Mountain Christian Ranch) is AWESOME! Beautiful up here. Wonderful staff. GREAT food. I think I gained weight at church camp. That doesn’t usually happen.

Tonight I challenged the kids with “What will your story be?” Probably 20 – 30 students who had yet to make decisions for Christ did so tonight! Again, the altar was jammed with kids saying “I want to give my ALL. My life for the Gospel.” They blew the roof off the place with the last worship song.

Anyway, thanks for your prayers. Can’t wait to be back home again!

Making my story,

Jeff

Just noticed something

19 07 2007

This is Grant’s first line from his latest blog:

“Today was a great day at Element Church. Jeff is gone to a youth camp in Montana”

Hmmm, was it a great day at Element BECAUSE I was gone or was that just coincidental that he started off his blog like that. What’s going on Grant?

Concerned,

Jeff

Service went awesome last night! Really challenged the kids to have a world changing love. “I can’t change THE world but I can change MY world and when I change MY world THE world changes.” HA clever little statement I made up. Kids are really connecting to the messages. Had lots of comments from the small group leaders about how kids were responding. Tonight we are ending with “What Will Your Story Be?” That we are responsible for the story of our lives. We only get one shot to live it. What would be said about me at the end of my life? Anyway, it’s going really well. We are going tubing down a river today with Jonah and Mariah. That should be interesting. Get us city slickers in a tube in freezing cold water. lol See how that goes. We’ll be taking off tomorrow morning for Thermopolis. Looking forward to that. Then we get to go to Cody Thomas’ wedding (kid who came through our youth ministry at HPCC). And we’ll get into Cheyenne late late Saturday night/Sunday morning. Go to Unplugged and we are 2 weeks from our next preview. WOW! time goes fast. Thanks for your prayers. They have been felt.

Following Christ

Jeff
