Everyday a Super Tuesday
March 6, 2012
Today is Super Tuesday. It is a day where the most seats for the republican nomination are up for grabs. For the hopeful candidates more is at stake today than ever before. What is true for them is also true for us. In our lives today more is at stake than ever before. We have more responsibilities, more opportunities, more debt or wealth. Today is more important than yesterday. What will you do with your day today? What will you do with your tomorrow with even more on the line?
5 Reasons I am pumped about returning to Snowbird
September 12, 2011
This fall Statesboro First United Methodist Youth will be going to Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters for our high school fall retreat. It’s going to be amazing! We will be going during fall break on October 15th-17th. The cost is $150 and the due date to sign up is Sunday September 18th. Here are 5 reasons I am fired up about going back to the place we took our winter retreat last year.
#1 – The on-campus recreation activities. They have a 3 man swing, zip line, goliath swing, rock wall, foam pit, paint ball, a mountain to climb, and more. The fun never stops!
#2 – Rafting down the Ocoee River. Back in 1996 when the olympics where in the USA they went here to go rafting. Don’t worry we will be on the easier part of the water. I am huge chicken and I had a blast when I went a couple of years ago.
#3 – FOOD! Snowbird is the best camp food you will ever eat.
#4 – Worship and Teaching. I was blown away by how moving our time was with not only the teachers and worship, but also the small group leaders. They have a staff full of college age people who are ready to listen and pour into students.
#5 – It’s a high school retreat! We all deal with some similar issues, but this will be just for high school students. You will get to hang with people your age.
This is our first high school retreat and I am SO PUMPED! You should go talk with your parents right now about coming.
