Have A Safe Trip

Well Thursday is the day we are all going to pack up our cars and got to Tennessee. I hope everybody has a safe trip up there and back. It is going to be a great experience I know nobody will forget. I want to wish everybody good luck in all of their events and to those who might not be participating in anything. Hope to see everybody soon!

Finishing Up

Well I just officially finished all my pre-Lads to Leaders events. It has been really fun this year! Now all that is left is to pack. Some time putting things off isn't as good as you think it is at first. I want to wish everybody luck on finishing their stuff for the pre-events they are involved in.

Getting Closer

Well it's almost that time again! We have about two weeks until it will be time for us to all pack up the cars and head to Tennessee. There is still so much to do. I can't wait to see all the stuff everybody has done. I know it will all look great!

Painting and Poster

Well yesterday I completed my painting and poster.It was the first time I have ever done a painting so I was super excited. We worked on all of our art at my church all together and it was so much fun. It was so encouraging to see all the little kids working so hard and getting so excited to get to do their posters and greeting cards on their own. They all everything ended up looking great.

Favorite Lads to Leaders Event

My favorite Lads to Leaders event is speech. Speech is my favorite event at Lads to Leaders because I love being able to influence and teach someone else. Being my age people don't and won't let you do. Participating in speech might be a little scary to some of you but just think what if the one time you gathered up the courage and did speech is the one time somebody actually decided to listen to somebody about the Bible. Then if that same person got baptized because of the speech you gave affected them so much. That would be an amazing thing. So maybe this will hopefully make you think when you start over exaggerating about doing a speech.

Lads To Leaders Events

There is so many events to participate in at Lads To Leaders from speeches to second language. No matter how old you are there is a event for everybody. Some people think that just because they like to talk in front of people then they cant do anything but that is not true. If you don't want to talk you can do an art or something else.

To Work Till Jesus Comes

What does it mean to work till Jesus comes? To me this means that as Christians we are working hard to teach others. On April 27, 2011 a powerful tornado hit the area where I live and where I am sure many of you live as well. It was awful alot of people in our congergation lost their homes, family, and friends. But that does not mean that other people didn't die on that sad day. After the storm people from all over came to help as the church I attend became a relief center for those who lost everything in the storm. That is when I really realized what it means to work till Jesus comes. People of all ages were there to help. Our elderly helped by answering phones and filling out forms. Our little kids helped by straighting shelves and helping people fill their containers. Then there was our men who unloaded all that heavy stuff off of the trucks. So you see no matter how old you are you can always find some way to help someone.
