river valley youth.

last night the youth group had a get together at chris and tessa's house. there was a giant, crazy long slip n slide. swimming in the ryan's pool. and a bonfire and some great food. it was a really good time and we managed to end the evening with only a few bruises and one bloody nose. good times.

i am so glad that i got to spend some time with the people in the youth group. they are really amazing and i consider myself blessed to know each and every one of them.i love the fact that they welcomed me in two years ago and now i can call river valley my home...i love that i have been able to not only experience growth for myself but that i have been able to watch them grow and mature in christ as well.

i am looking forward to my last year with all of them.

hey...(hopefully) we can get the "college age" segment of rvcc student ministries up and running soon...thus, you simply make a smooth transition into that area of our "youth." that will guarantee you at least four more years before you have to slide into all those "adult" categories with the rest of us old people, lol.

Praying for you to have a great senior year!

Lauren, I'm really glad you made it out to the gig last night. It has been awesome to watch you grow in your faith this past year, and I'm very very proud of you!

I'm also excited to see what your senior year brings.
