SALT Meeting in 2 weeks


Yo SALT,

Just reminding you all that we are meeting in 2 weeks. It is the first tuesday of each month.

We are going over spiritual gifts of team.

Summer Calendars are out


HEy YOuth,

Summer calendars are out! Do I have your mailing address. I don't want to hear it, "I never got one" I always am saying if you want things, I need your CORRECT mailing address. Consider yourself warned.

Randy Clark... You heard of him?


So amy and I went to Monterey this weekend and on our way down, I listened to a CD that my friend Jose gave me, and wow, it really rocked me.

Here is his website and again, let me know what you all are thinking and processing in all this that I am sending

58 and 10

So at youth group the other day I encouraged the kids to bring their friends to youth group and... they did! We had 58 teens and about 20 of those teens had never been in church. 10 kids that night gave their lives to Christ and I would say that they have a good understanding of GRACE. It is such a powerful video on Grace that Louie Giglio presents. Here is the link for anyone interested in seeing the video

There are quite a few videos to watch in a row, just get the next one.

Let me know what you think

This Thursday Night

Wow, God is showing me great things about this Thursday Night youth group! I have heard that you all are totally stepping out and inviting your friends! SO proud of you all. The Gospel will be preached and your friends will have an opportunity to receive Christ.

There will be a ton of pizza and our youth calendars for this summer will be out that night, so make sure you come!

Hope you have a good time in Oregon

Archie and Chris,

I just wanted to say, that I hope that your time in Oregon goes well. I will be praying for you both and Chris, stay in touch and keep reading about the ministry. We need a covering of prayer and this last month has been blessed from your prayers. God bless you both and may God show Himself in even greater ways to you as we are apart for this year.

Louie Giglio- Youth Group Next Week

Next week, we are going to have a huge party at youth group. Invite all your friends to come and have a party with us and we will watch an amazing video together. I can almost guarantee that there will not be a dry eye in the house.

March 19th

PIZZA WILL BE THERE!

Seasons come and go

So right now this is a season that I am incredibly busy. I am working a full time job, taking two classes that each demand a lot of time (one being in Hayward, about 1 1/2 hrs away) and on my days off right now I am trying to make a little extra cash working on a house in Napa. I do not have one extra minuite right now to think or breathe.

It will all be over too in the same week in May. Oh ya, I am getting ordained for all of you interested in knowing. May 7th at our church. I can't wait!

Sure there will be a party....
