So today was a meeting for all of the mission trips this summer. This means that WE ARE ON OUR WAY!! There is so much to do to get there as a group. Our next big fundraiser is the Pancake Breakfast on Easter Sunday. It should be good food and good fun.
Individually we are all working on our stock, balancing schoolwork, balancing work schedules, and leaving enough time to hang out with the wonderful people that make up the Advent Youth. In a couple weeks we are having the blast from the 80’s night (and in my opinion these days you don’t have to go far to get that blast, though fun nonetheless). It is a chance for us to go beyond our youth group and meet people from other youth (in this case Salem Lutheran) and just have fun.
Personally the closer we get to this trip the more excited I get about the whole experience. I am ready to delve into new experience, something that would “blow my socks off” as Nichol would say. It is an exciting time in life, being a highschooler, though it can also be deemed scary. It is the point at which we all transition from being a child and depending on our parents for so many things, to really understanding the world and being able to relate within it as adults. These trips that we take are going to be so awesome. I know that I will come back a different person and in this hopefully become closer to God.
We should kick this baby in high gear. Make it a great day!!!
