Well gosh, all I can say is tonight was incredible! We raffled off an iPod Nano that all of us leaders chipped in to buy in hopes of drawing a crowd and it definitely helped! The room was packed. I think we're only going to fit at the Butler's for a couple more weeks, and that is just about the most exciting thing that could be happening! We had over 40 students tonight and the energy was off the charts! John Wulf lead us in an awesome game of how fast can you take off and put on prop clothes (over your own clothes, don't worry parents) and Reid Zucati lead us in some intense finger jousting! Tonight I had a simple message of "Come and See" and used the scripture John 1:43-46 in which Nathaniel asks Philip, "Can anything good come from Nazareth?" (asking about Philip's claims of Jesus of Nazareth being the Messiah) and Philip responds, "Come and See." I asked our students tonight if they would be willing to come and see who we as leaders think Jesus is. It was a super fun night. Huge thanks to Mike and Joy Fargo for making us a delicious dinner! And as always, HUGE thanks to Mark and Rebecca Butler for allowing us to invade their home and make all sorts of noise! I am so blessed by this incredible community that has surrounded Sprague High School Young Life! Thank you all SO much!! -Mat
