we were going to take another week off, but dan and our programming folks needed some able assistance on pulling the set down for the "trees" series. i was surprised how fast our jr. highers pulled it off. we took down the 24 pine trees and cleaned up the mess in less than 70 minutes! they did and excellent job. i think it gave them a little bit of ownership of all the work that goes into putting the big church services together. of course tearing down always takes less time than putting something up. the good work of the jr. highers left some open time with our sr. highers to talk about the coming year. we had a great free flowing conversation with all. sandie and kevin, two of the adult leaders offer some great encouragement on their hopes for the coming spring.



my devotion for the day was a great transition...john 12:26 Jesus says: If any of you wants to serve me, then follow me. Then you'll be where I am, ready to serve at a moment's notice. The Father will honor and reward anyone who serves me.

it was that "...ready to serve at a moments notice..." and the jr. highers did it well. with good hearts they blessed dan and his team with a job well done.
