Conference week

Our youth conference went really well this week.  We had close to 200 youth from around the country come for a five day conference.  Besides the awesome worship times, learning to share God's word with others, they had they enjoyed playing games in the afternoons (bumpers, relay races, and shooting water balloons in a sling shot).

Some of the games they were having the conference.  The leaders were trying to keep the kids from geting the towel that was on the ground in the middle of them.

All the kids.  We really need to get us one of these.  This is a Polaris Ranger, a necessity getting around the compound.

The big light on the back was made at the GE plant in Henderesonville NC plant where Kristies parents work.
We are praying the may donate some lights like these to help light up the compound. This light was made in 1999.
These poles are 32 feet tall.


Prayer Requests:

Please pray for our conference that starts Friday, the 24th, this is going to teach and encourage those who do the flannel graph ministry.
Friday morning we go for our Visa appointment, pray it goes well.
