TEEN POWER UP 2009 BABY!!!

As I mentioned in my last post, our annual fall teen bash, "TEEN POWER UP" was on Saturday, the 18th. AND..... IT WAS AMAZING!! God was SO good to us and really blessed all of our hard efforts. It was awesome to see some of the teens in our youth group come together as the body of Christ, and grow so much.

These past weeks of practice and work have really blessed me and grown all of us so close, it's crazy. I'd say no matter how the event went, that in itself would make it worthwhile. BUT, it all went RIDICULOUSLY WELL! And people were clearly impacted and had a BLAST!

Although we had MANY chances to lose hope and sight of what really matters through the whole process and event. Satan CLEARLY didn't want us to do what we were doing, which made us all the more certain that God had BIG plans. Seeing the teens constantly re-focus and not let the many situations get them down or dampen their enthusiasm was SO encouraging. And God really blessed it!

Talk about extreme, you could very clearly see the spiritual battle being waged. Satan wasn't too happy about what we were doing and did everything he could to stop it. BUT OUR GOD IS EXTREME AND ALL POWERFUL GUYS!

The skit went super well, the lighting was sooo cool and super fun for me working on it all. Although the fog machine didn't end up working and neither did the spinning red beam. All the strobes did though. The son of the director of the camp, Josh, taped the whole thing on a really nice camera and is going to edit it some and put it on a DVD for us. SOOO.... hopefully you guys shall see it SOON!

KEEPIN IT EXTREME,
I'M OUT
