I just finished a three hour lunch with my Student Leadership Team.  It seems that every time we meet I walk away encouraged as a youth pastor.  God is really doing some things through our ministry.  2009 was a great year, but as I look to 2010 I am thrilled at the possibilities!  The Student Leadership Team isn’t perfect; we have a long way to go in our training and team development, but today six students took three hours out of their Christmas break to continue preparations for a major outreach Super Bowl party that they are planning.  They could have done anything today, they are on Christmas break, but they chose to use their time for ministry, God is good!
