Small groups

We started our new small groups on Tuesday. We will be working through a series from Simply Youth Ministry entitled Experiencing Life Together. I feel that an indicator of small group success is when they go over time because of the sharing and discussion. All of the groups on Tuesday went overtime. I am excited to see what is going to happen in our lives because of these groups.

Youth Group has been kicked off!

Last night we kicked off youth group at CCBC. We played some games, heard some words from yours truly, reunited staff versus students football and had a great time reconnecting after the summer hiatus.
Unheard of in youth ministry history we played a game with four teams and after five minutes of playing the teams were all tied. Each team member had a spoon in their mouth, had to a carry a Runt on the spoon a certain distance and then drop the Runt into a bowl. We then played a two minute sudden death and all the teams were still tied. We are going to continue this game next Tuesday.
Also starting next Tuesday are the small groups. We had a connecting time at the end of this week's youth group and are excited for the small groups to start.
We also unveiled the theme for this year.

Ode to the CCBC YOUTH Class of 2007

We been on a journey together for the past few years. Some of you longer then others. I am truly proud of you all and apologize I will not be a youth group on Tuesday. I am sad that I can not be there with you but want you all to know that It has been truly a pleasure to serve with you. I can't wait to see what God has planned for you on your journey of life. I want to share a couple things with you all.

1) at times your going to get down and frustrated, know that its ok and that YOU may not be able to handle things on your own. Turn to God during those times. I pray that He will be your pillar to lean on.

2) Pray, pray, pray, pray. continue to draw near to Jesus. The stronger your relationship is the more it will help you in life. I can't express that enough. You will have many distraction in life but stay on course and continue to read and pray.

3) this one is the most important, LIVE AT HOME AS LONG AS YOU CAN SERIOUSLY!!!! Bills are poopy and if you can get away from not spending your money on rent DO IT!!! I would if I could right now!


Congrats Class of 2007 it has been an honor and a privilege serving with you. I pray you remember the wonderful things God has done these past couple year and you continue to build off those!

Blessings.....
