God's hand at work!!

Today God showed up and SHOWED OFF!! It is hard to tell you all the ways God provided for our team today, so we want to just share a few!! Today has been an interesting day FULL of praises, opportunities and lessons!!! We started out as planned around 9:45. Along around Katy, Texas something flew up off the highway knocking a whole in the lead vans radiator. God's timing is always perfect and since we were already looking for a gas station, we took the next exit and didn't even know the radiator was leaking until we pulled into the station. So as we begin to "try to work on the situation", God already had the solution. Long story short... God put at that station not one but two men in the ministry, one of which was an AWESOME mechanic. The local auto parts had the radiator in stock and within a few hours Chaplain Chris had it in and running. Mr. Mike and a couple of the guys were a big help to him. Meanwhile, Mr. Adams (the other ministry man) talked to the students and adults about his mission and opportunities he was involved in. Angela, Vikki and I had the opportunity to talk to Chaplain Chris' wife, Stephanie and encourage her in her journey to seek and serve the Lord!! What a blessing these people were to us today and how incredible it was to know that the student and adults (myself included) got to see first hand God at work and the people that He used today to be His hands and feet to take care of us in our time of need!! Thank you God for your faithfulness, your provision and thank you for not letting us get in the way of your work!! We are getting settled in our room and heading to bed. Excited about attending the cowboy church in the morning and getting our schedule for the week!! To God be the Glory!!!

Home Safely

Thanks for all the prayers that went up on behalf of the students and adults this week. We had a great time and God worked in a mighty way. Over 20 students gave their life to Christ! Not to mention we had a great time of fellowship and just plain fun! More pictures will be up soon at www.harpsyouth.com

Last Day

About to head to bfast before our last session! God has done some great things in all of us. I look forward to seeing how God will continue to speak to our students and adults as we take what we have been challenged to school, home, work, and play. We will be heading out at 11! Please pray for safe travel. Parents we will be back by 6:00p.m.

Day 3 Night

A great time of worship tonight as Adrian challenged us on how consistently seek God. It was a great message. It was followed by a "talent show." Some of it was talent and some of it was well... We are now headed to bed and then up in the morning for our last session before we head out. It has been a great week. Parents I encourage you to ask your student what God did in their life when they get home!

Day 3 Afternoon

We have had a great morning and afternoon.

Adrian challenged and reminded us this morning what God has already done for us as believers and that HE paid the ultimate price! "Christ in us the hope of glory." After the service we headed to lunch and then most of us went to Wonderworks and a few went shopping! It was a fun time to hang out with the adults and students. We have got some great pictures and I will put some up tonight along with another blog.

Dinner is at 5:00 followed by our last evening session! Pray for God's Will to be done in all of our lives.
