There are many silent partners involved with PBC; those babysitting, those who entrusted their youth in our care, pastor Jones and staff for getting behind this wonderful idea, those who assisted in preparations (vans, finances, etc.). And it brings Gail n I much joy to be able to come home and express our thanks to everyone, it's been a blessing-oh such a blessing-to have headed this up.THANK

This will most likely be my last blog for Pioneer Bootcamp and I would just like to say thank you to everyone. To JB and Gail for giving this opportunity to represent you both and Remnant Youth in the best way that we know how. I appreciate you both putting faith in me.

How can I describe what an awesome weekend we had? On Saturday, Team Heat worked long after the sun went down in Texas. And on Sunday, we rose just after the sun came up. Praise God for making it fruitful; over 25 were saved!

We are about to leave for breakfast here... I haven't written since Friday because I didn't have time on Saturday and yesterday the Internet was down. I was happy to be getting home earlier, but now I'm a little sad to be leaving Farmington. God did amazing things and I'm sure He will continue to move long after we are home. Outreach was great, as well as the concert, BBQ, and all of the services

Well we are ready to head out. What an awesome experience and it truly gets Donny and I stirred up. I know this is where Donny and I should have been this week. We fellowshipped with people we probably would have not ever gotten to know especially the youth. These teens are amazing and what an honor it has been to serve with them. All these teens have a hunger to see Gods will done in their lives

I wish this van full of teens would go to sleep! This is one time our "no sleeping" rule is not in effect and what are they doing? being their crazy selves at 6am! Fun on the road...singing, dancing, shouting, pillow fights, laughing...oh my, now they're all singing to HSM...mostly just Tim...here we come Colorado Springs, are you ready for us?

Amazing...Is putting it lightly. What a week. We are anxious to get home to our kids, but sad to leave a great church. Pastor Kirk and Vania welcomed us with open arms. We have the utmost respect for those who labor in the fields. No one could have prepared us for what we got to be apart of even though it was only 6 days. We were able to experience a little taste of it. Pioneer Boot Camp was well

As i write this there are less than 7 hours left in Farmington NM and it's really sad to be saying goodbye to this experience. I know that we have all learned and grown from this but it's always sad when it ends. Today we had church just like in the Springs. We even had one of our usual pastors with us. Pastor Marshall preached two great services and we had 81 people come out tonight. Definitely

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

Today was a fantastic final day! We all woke up exhausted when service came we were all pumped! At least 4 people that I saw came from the outreaches to the services and I am pretty sure some brought family also to the evening service! Pastor Blake was really excited that we had brought in more youth from the outreaches! God really moved! People got saved! And we had great fellowship!I am so

Tonight was our final service here in Mesa with our Mesa family. Pastor Gould preached a great sermon on Decisions and how they affect your destiny. Before altar call, our team performed the everything skit. Hearts were tender and open to God and we had an awesome altar call. The atmosphere in the service was very annointed and it "sealed" what God has done in us and the church during this week.

After passing out 1,000 flyers, and spending numerous hours out in the AZ sun, it was show time. The anticipation was building all day. We spent the morning outreaching and passing out flyers. We had a great crowd turn out for the movie "Facing the Giants", while many others were playing volleyball right behind us. Our teens did the skit "It's Missing" which got a lot of laughs. As people were

Round 1:God really showed himself to us today! When we got to the first park we began setting up in a pavilion across from the playground. There were a few people across at the playground but not many people seemed like they had an interest in any free food, or free entertainment. I know as the time started to come for our first outreach to begin my faith was getting though. Regardless we pressed

Had an amazing turn out for the outreach set for today, though it hit 105. The team was pumped and ready to get the day started. We knew it was going to be hot but the humidity was brutal. Everyone was sweating like crazy but that didn't stop us. We had free root beer floats and chips there at the church while we played and the people were drawn in. We decided to play in the park as well as

We make no assumptions, but it seems the other teams have staged their cop scenes. What you are about to see is a real cop doing real cop stuff at our church. We were just finishing unloading our equipment and whatnot from our outreach in the park when this officer pulls up and immediately corners JJ and Aaron. Big Jake gets the brunt of the whole encounter, we report you decide. Is it real? Or a

I'm still two days behind so here goes. Yesterday was our youth fun day so we got to actually sleep in until 6:30, yes! We met Kyle in a small town on the way to Cortez and then headed up to the mountains. On the way up we found out that Donny does not like Daft Punk, Chuck Norris is king, and Josh is good at making up jokes on the spot. Once up in the mountains we met the Cortez youth and took a

Free food, music, and drama serves its purpose as a tool to draw the lost! Thank you Jesus for no rain. This was still part of our first outreach. Right now, it's almost 10pm, we are finishing the movie "Facing the Giants" at our second outreach. It's been a long day, full of heat, but more rewarding than words can express. A full report is to come....

We just had an awesome altar call, 7-10 came to the front and prayed, many more prayed out in the park, on the basketball court, in the parking lot, and around the lake. Glory to God.Now we are showing a movie, it's 7:45 PM and the surrounding area is filling up!! Hallelujah!

God is doing great things and with Donny, Josh and Brian together, I do not think I have laughed so much in my life. We had a blast playing volleyball and we learned Pastor Kyle takes volleyball very seriously and he likes to speed everywhere. Jacob got a sunburn and decided to put sunscreen on afterwards. We miss you all and thank you church for all your prayers. We truly feel them and know we

It is 1:12 in the AM Saturday morning. These guys are teaching me card games. Why I stay up like this I never know, but it is fun being around my youth. Today was great, two outreaches, another practice, Q&A with pastor Gregory, Collandra, and young Chris; very productive. These teens have really blossomed these past few days, which is a pleasant surprise. Gail n I are so proud of our leaders and

Alrighty once again another LONG yet amazing day. We woke up and went to breakfast.... today for some reason everyone was just so grumpy towards eachother this morning. We definitely needed to spend extra time at prayer! The day started off by sitting down with Pastor Kirk and Vania. And finally we got the opportunity to sit down and ask everything we've ever thought about. Pastor Kirk was able

Phew! We are completely drained! Our group gave it our all today, 120% and really I think even more than that! Last night we got charged up with over $100 worth of Monsters and it’s a good thing cause we needed it today. The morning started with a holy ghost filled time of prayer. Then we had some immediate down time. Robert and Tim made a pretend horse and had way too much fun.Before too long

We had an awesome outreach tonight! We were so encouraged to see open doors and open hearts. It seemed like most doors we knocked on were answered by friendly, open people. We are believing and trusting that, as we've done our part, God will meet us and we will see fruit tomorrow, Sunday, and many services to come. After outreach tonight, the Mesa teens joined us for bowling, popcorn, and

It's been a few days since I have really blogged so I'll just touch on the highlights of my last few days and then talk about today. We have outreached more than I have in my whole life, and I've been in this fellowship my whole life. I created strawberry waffles during breakfast and now people I don't know in the hotel are telling me they're trying it. The people in Farmington are really nice

This morning we got up later than usually and prayed and read on our own in our rooms. Then we all went to Donny and Tiffany's room to pray together, then ate breakfast before we headed out for our Fun Day. We drove to the mountains with Kaylee from the Farmington church in our van to meet the teens from Cortez. We hung out at the San Juan National Forest all day. First, we went on a short hike

So it's 12:33 Friday morning. I'm still buzzed off of Thursday. It's been a sun shiny day and a wonderful night. The spirit of God is stirring and hearts are ripe.

We have had such a tremendous week so far! As far as fun, we have definitely made this trip a blast and done some really crazy stuff. But all this “crazy” stuff has only been so fun because we were doing it all together. We really have been a “group” in everything, and the best part is we all like being together. It has been so great getting to know the people in my group in an entirely different

Day Tres for Team Caliente..... Along with our new friends from Mesa, AZ (isha, E.M.,ChrisX2,Bekah, and Cody) ,we made our way to Wet N Wild. We had an exciting and very hot day of fun, food, and WATER!!!! It seemed, as the day went on, that Chad got whiter while Marie got darker. When we got back, we outreached in a local neighborhood near the park where our outreach will be. People were excited

The Farmington Fanatics had yet another long day. We had to be at the church for prayer at 6:30, but we were there early, of course. I was soooooo tired this morning! I got to talk to my parents (I love you guys!). Later this morning we all gathered in Donny and Tiffany's room to make posters for the concert, which we forgot in the van. As usual, Josh, Jacob and Evan started fighting. Two little

Had a blast tubing down Salt River today, took almost an hour to get there but it was worth it. The expected temp was to be 110 and the ride would be a little over 2 1/2 hours long. For 15 bucks we each got a tube and a ride to the point of the river that we would begin at. None of us wanted to get in at first cuz it was cold but at that point it was too late to turn back. Oh by the way we had

the afternoon was spent working on drama at the church. the Wednesday night service gave us the chance to meet everyone and hear from God. pastor Paul preached on discipleship; be teachable, listen, and act. many were saved and none of us left the same. we can't say enough about how much fun we're already having, and most importantly how much we're learning.

Another day and another soul to be reached. We literally have hit the ground running. Pastor Kyle has us working very hard and these teens are awesome. I harrassed everyone about sun screen and obviously I did not put enough on because I am the only one who got burned. What is that about. They have truly seen the vision and are here to do Gods will. Donny, Brian and I are so blessed to have such

I would like to start this blog off by saying how proud of my group I am. They have all stepped up tremendously and are doing what we came to do. We were joking with eachother about doing our jobs and they told me I should do my job. I told them I was doing my job when all of them are doing theirs which they are (Finally Evan, take some pictures). It is so much easier to go on outreach with

day 3 last nite was an amazing service. pastor Kyle preached on dominion. Such a good message and powerful preaching, its obvious that he is a product of his father. I told him that there is no question, he is his fathers son. He said yes, and he has the scars to prove it. we left the church last nite fired up. We then took pastor to applebees. a vwo tradition. We met pastor Kyle for prayer

Wednesday is in the books. From the reports Gail n I have been receiving it seems to have turned out to be a productive day. Farmington Fanatics pounding pavement, the Phoenix trifecta unphased by the heat (except Blake, check video below), and Denton arresting our curiosity with it's postings...it's rated AG. We love you guys out there, keep up the good work, keep up the posts, love God, hate
