So, this Friday, the four kaleo guys involved in youth lead the whole night. it was a sweet time of planning before hand and i was surprised at time it took to plan the whole thing. we planned an hour-ish of games, followed by singing and then a short talk thing. Every thing came together well in the end and it was a very cool night. With the games we tried focusing in on teamwork, ppl working together and also games that would involved ppl getting to know others. we also made sure all the games had a bit of a "twist", for example, we had 4 legged races. we also played a group pictionary game where the ppl with the words ran around hiding from the teams. after games we all moved to the chapel to do some singing. we got to involve dan (not from out church) and lewis, another leader in the band, so that was really cool. the energy levels were really high which the singing difficult at first. for the devotional everyone was really attentive. as a group we brainstormed what we though might help them. i talked about reaching out of the sweet community they have and including others and just making God time a priority. it was a very new format for the youth group and so it was difficult at times, but as a group we feel it was a good thing.
As "Team Vancouver" we also did another fund raiser bottle drive and raised another $170.00.
So, thats my last week, we're in class this week and thats going well. In other news, only 16 days till we leave youth quake! woot woot!
im out!
