2 Night

A great day of skiing, tubing, ice skating, shopping, and...! Good news is we brought back to the hotel everyone we left with :)

The messages today were both great. The Lord has blessed Adrian to be an excellent communicator of the gospel. There were several students this evening who prayed to receive Christ and other decisions as well. I am sure you will hear more about these when we get home and also on Sunday.

Tomorrow is shopping/ track day. However it is supposed to rain and storm. So we are doing shopping and Wonderworks (pretty cool, you can google it). Looking forward to another great day.

1st Night

It's just before 11:00 and all the students are headed to their rooms. We had a great first night of worship. The Akins lead and did a wonderful job as always! Adrian followed up with a message on 2 Corinthians 11 and 12 regarding Passion and Suffering. He made a statement that I am still thinking on, "Passion makes suffering look like excitement" and followed it up by 2 Cor 12:10 and Acts 5:40-42 (encourage you to go read all the scriptures:). He encouraged us to rejoice in our suffering for the Lord and if we have a Passion for Him we will suffer but that we can use that for His glory as Paul and others did. Very challenging message.

Tomorrow it's off to skiing, shopping, ice skating, snow tubing, and the like!!! Please pray for us that we will enjoy the fellowship together while here and that all students/ chaperones will know Christ before they leave and those that know Him, God will speak to them.

Made it Safely!!!

We have made to Pigeon Forge about 6:30p.m. All are here and accounted for. About to head to worship! Pictures and update to follow later tonight!

Post a comment

Feel free to post a comment. I will share some of the comments with the students everyday. You have to have a google account (which is free and easy) in order to comment. If you try to post and you don't have an account it will tell you what you need to do!
