Elevate 2009

Winter is almost here!!! That means Elevate is just around the corner.  I am so excited this year.  Same great place of Ogden Utah, same great snowboarding, better than anything available in California!!  The food is absolutely amazing, its like eating at Claim Jumper every night, no joke.  The hotel is a blast, the bus ride may be long, but the movies on the bus are awesome.  It is going to be a great year no doubt.  To keep the cost of the trip down, we have to limit it to 30 students.  This means we will fill up, guaranteed.  Spots are filled at a first come first served basis.  When we hit 30 spots, we will begin a waiting list, but there is absolutely no gaurantee that those on the waiting list will have a spot on the bus.  So we start taking sign ups next Sunday (October 11th) so be prepared!!!! Oh and the trip is actually cheaper than last year, pretty sweet huh!

Movie Night Destruction ... Much More to Come

Well, my junior high friends ... Movie Night was a success!! I'm thinking maybe only two people watched the whole movie through (DeeDee and Marisol), but I'm sure we all still had a great time. Other than setting off the fire alarm, which "is hysterical" (quote Michelle Sharp) ... I think everything else was fantastic ... great food, great games, and lots of sugar.

Anyway, if you missed out, don't worry about it! There are a couple great events coming up very very soon ... one in November ... one in December. Are you ready? I don't think so ...

BACK TO SCHOOL MOVIE NIGHT

Well, it never feels good to go back to school after a long, wonderful summer ... Soooo we thought it might be nice to have a movie night ASAP. Just like always, there will be food and drinks provided ... lots of it. Feel free to invite your friends ... they are more than welcome to come!

We'll tell you what movie later ... I think I might know what it is though. If you have any suggestions, please let me know!!

Hope to see you there!

New Wednesdays, New Sundays, New Blog

Well the last one's kinda obvious ... I got sick of the last blog setup, so i changed it! I like it now ... It's much better.

For those of you who have been gone, we have just started a study in Luke for Sundays ... I'm excited, everyone except Bethany is excited, so you should be excited too. Luke is a very very interesting way of looking at the gospel message, and since I'm a very very interesting person, it fits quite perfectly! Be excited, be ready ...

And for those of you who don't go to Wednesdays, come!!!!! We just started a study in 1st Peter, and I'm looking forward to every single study. Up at camp, the boys did a study in 2nd Peter (we'll be getting there soon), but the crazy part is that every morning, at least two of the boys connected with the message very well. As Evan would say, Peter is a very underappreciated book, so it's time that we appreciate it! :)

The End
