As I said in my previous post, I went with our church youth group to Acquire the Fire. Despite the sleepless night, it was a pretty good weekend. We had some teens affected by the message taught. I pray they remember this weekend and that they apply what they learned to their life and keep continuing to do so.

We also had some good talks with some of the kids. I talked to two of the girls after the first night and we got a bit deep into it. My co-leader also contributed to this conversation and she helped because she can relate to one of the girls much better than I can. We had another girl come in for a little while and talked with us as well. It was nice to be able to do that. On the car ride, both up and back, we talked with a new guy that recently joined our church. He seems very eager to talk about the Bible and learn more about God and Jesus.

I know I asked you to join me in praying for these kids. I know some of you are praying. I have been less frustrated and have been able to reconnect with two of the girls. I thank you for those prayers. I ask you to try and keep these kids in your prayers. We picked up some new curriculum and I would love to have it make a big impact on them. I have really come to love these kids so much. It is hard when I know they are having trouble.
