Good Youth times

first, i haven't really written here in a while but its never too late it guess.

Last friday which just so happens to be yesterday i was sent off to youth all on my lonesome. Abby and Emma were working and bo simply didn't want to go which was fine with me because if people are there that don't want to be there then they just arnt fun and it would be better if they weren't. But moving on, it was dodgeball night at the intermediate school with pastor phil organizing the shindig. and it was a great amount of fun! i had a really good time. in our e-mails Phil told us to dress in our best dodgeball clothes so i did. Above the knee shorts, muscle shirt, crazy neon green hat, and high top shoes... nobody else dressed in such a fashion and when i got there i was subject to some ridicule, but no dig deal. i wore it with pride and some confidence. and soon enough it was accepted among the younglings for it to be "cool". after dodgeball we headed over to timmy Hoes, where i purchased a med. ice cap and a D-nut with the change i had. yum yum! For quite some time i have been feeling like an outsider of the youth but tonight flying solo i felt like a leader that made an impact. i have begun pouring into two of our youths lives. Jacob and trying for the other guy but his name escapes me at the moment. i have begun simply trying to invade there lives by asking questions and listening to their lives and offering what wisdom that has been given to me this past year. with only 3 weeks left it feels late to start feeling like a part of the group but i am glad that moment has come.

But only three weeks left and the count down is on,
