On saturday the youth group went to cool crest-which is a putt-putt, go-cart, and arcade. This was the activitiy that the new 7th graders could attend for free. They came out by the hoards! It was great to see all of them there and we had a great time. I don't know how many times annie had to say- 'girls this is putt-putt' they were whacking the ball soo....hard.

madelyn, keegan, and pastor matt acting out the story of the good samariatian & the youth human video

On Sunday it was our 2nd synergy service. The theme was love. Our mission is this summer is: living, loving & growing-we are family! We started the service with the youth segment and they read the love chapter in 1 Corinthains and did a drama/human video. Pastor matt and todd did an offeratory. We had worship and then the KIDS took over :) which by the way was my favorite part....but i am a little partial......:) we did a praise song with motions and puppet song. we then acted out the story of the good samaritan and talked about loving others even if they don't look or act like us. Dad got us and closed the service with a short message on loving all people. It was a great service and I can't wait for the next one.

Mike is working this week on the reveal for the new youth group name and finishing the decorating of the youth room. Its going to be soo....cool. He is also working his last promotion for next wednesday. he is preaching and taking care of the entire service. He is super excited....i'm getting geared up for VBS and my last promotion which is the 16th of aug. we see the end of our internship but there is alot of work to do between now and then.

Mike is finally getting the bathroom started @ the parsonage. the tub is in and soon he will be tearing out the old shower and putting the new floor down. I have started to pack because 3 weeks from today we will be headed back down to Springfield for school. I can't believe how fast the summer has gone but its gone just the same!
