Again I apologize for still being two days behind but we have been uber-busy and when we are at the hotel, their internet doesn't work. I think I may buy an iphone as soon as I get back. I am so excited for what God has done this week in my life and in the lives of the youth that are with me. To catch you up I will tell of our day Saturday.
Saturday was outreach day and we got to sleep in a little until 7:30. It's rough but it makes it all worth it when God moves. We headed to the church and stopped by starbucks for the fifth time this week on the way. We packed up and went to a nearby park for a BBQ. We all made a sign and Pastor Kyle did the grilling. The youth went to the intersection with their signs to try and draw people in and Nic danced literally all day. We had over 150 people come by but people in Farmington don't stick around, they just come, eat, and then leave which is different from the springs but we had a great turnout. It was a great turnout and we got alot of fliers out. We played B-ball, ate burgers, and of course I played with Morgan. :) After the BBQ we had a few hours to kill so we decided to all ride a mechanical bull across the street, and when I say all I mean the guys because the girls chickened out. We then went back to the hotel for an hour of downtime before heading back to church at 4 for the revival service with Pastor Marshall. We arrived early because Donnie and Nic were going to practice the drums so they could play in upcoming services and Natalie went to sing. We were all dressed in our shirts and ties and ready for church when Pastor Kyle said he wanted us to do the everything skit again that night. Of course we said yes right away not knowing that we didn't have Natalie's dress, the music, kristen's shirt, or a knife and at the same time Nic broke Pastor's drumsticks so we had 45 min. and alot to do. We managed to get it all done. Church was great. Jacob did the offering, I told my testimony, Donny played the drums, and the rest of us helped as ushers. We prayed for the sick and two people gave their lives to Jesus. After service we all went out to eat and then back to the hotel for a good night's rest.
