slobbering magnetic boards

last night i envisioned the christian ministry to be like you are walking with, by, and alongside slobering magnetic boards.

so if each of us is a magnetic board, we attract each other. So, as we are walking... BAM>>> we get stuck together....

and sometimes one of the boards is an excessive slobber... so you get slobber all over you, or you slobber all over someone else.

than you unstick (we will call that reversed polarity, for anyone familiar)and then you go on and then get stuck to someone else.

well, that was my thought last night!

looking

Ok.. I have been trying to blog this.. and haven't got around to it.. but now I have so here we go!

I have been noticing lately how often people look, or watch, other people. In 'secret.' And then when you look over at them, they look away!

And then it gets weird, or funny, in that:

have you ever known someone is looking at you, and you are like, 'okay, I'LL LOOK BACK!'

and it is like you are stuck and CAN'T look back at them for a good 3-5 seconds...

Does anyone else experience that? or has anyone else experienced that lately?

Holly!

the impact of a life invested

the following is an article from teri h. about a life that's had an impact on her.

----------
Okay, well tomorrow is the last day for the Mazzuca family to be in Grandview. In case you don't know the Mazzuca family then there are Nate and Crystal (married) and Judah and Micah (their two little boys). They are a wonderful family that has helped me to grow in my faith and as a person. They have been at Bethany Presbyterian church for just about 3 years and now they will be spending about the same amount of time in Swaziland, Africa. Swaziland is a country within a country down in South Africa. They will be working for an organization called Youth for Christ. I am very excited about them going and doing God's work. But part of me is scared, sad, and anxious.

The part of me that is scared is scared because of the fact that they wont be there anymore. Whenever I had a problem or I was mad, upset or even really happy they were there. They have always been here when I needed them through out my Christian life. I know that God will only help me in being stronger in my faith but as this is something new it is scary but I will get over this soon.

Being sad isn't just that they are leaving, but it is that it will be 3 years and Judah and Micah more than likely wont remember me or anyone else from here. Judah and I have always been really close and we have always had a good time together but it almost breaks my heart to know that once they get back Judah will be 5 years only and with out a memory of all our good times together.

Micah isn't even one year only yet and he is just a little cute sack of potatoes. He has a personality that is so different than any other it is hard to describe. But it is without a doubt that he will not remember any of us here once they get home.

This anxious feeling isn't that I want them to go and get done, but I am anxious to see what it is that God has in store for me, them, and our youth group here. It is a very weird feeling and I don't know how to describe it but it is a mixture of all of the other feelings before but kind of excited.

I guess all there is left to say is good luck and blessing to the Mazzuca family. I love you all and will miss you greatly. You will always be in my heart no matter where God leads me.


God Bless And Love always

-Teri

Marty Taylor is coming!

Next Sunday night Marty Taylor is coming!

Marty Taylor owns 'Something Groovy,' which is a record store in downtown Prosser.

He has been working with youth in his church, and also has worked as a speaker with Jan McDonald at Life options. He is going to be speaking about 'Connections with the opposite sex.'

I felt, because there are a lot of young men in our group, that it would be great to hear this stuff from a guy! So, look forward to Sunday night!

*Also, be thinking about the trip to Seattle Feb. 24-25th. It would cost $30 + food if we pay this out-of-pocket. If we don't, we would have to dip into youth ministry funds. Again, the weekend is for an outreach to Seattle Union Gospel Mission in the morning, as well as a MercyMe and Audio Adreneline concert in the evening.

This price is to sleep Friday night at a church. If we wanted to get up super super early to leave Saturday morning (so we don't spend the night) that is an option. Or we can increase our cost to get a hotel.

Blessings!
