I forgot to mention this before but my co-leaders are Mark and Joe. Mark and I have been leading together for the last 2 1/2 years and Joe just got placed at SCSS last spring! They are both awesome and it is so cool to see them with all of our SC boys!
But back to the start of the year! We are so excited to see what God has planned for this coming semester and from the few planning meetings and pre club meetings I can already see somethings moving.
Two weeks ago we had our annual Prayer at the Pole. We had about 10 kids and 10 adults from the school and area come meet us at the flag pole in front of SC to pray the day before school started. After that we meet up with the other two clubs and all of our student leaders to plan out the semester! I just love spending time with all these kids and hearing their passion for sharing Christ in their schools! It is also nice know we have all of our clubs planned and that our kids have some ownership of them!
That Wednesday we had our first Student Leaders meeting with our juniors and seniors. These are our rockstar kids that are on fire for God and want to share that with the school! Since we planned our clubs already, this meeting we use to see how they are doing with God and how we can be praying for them and also help them share Christ with their friends.
Campaigners! So... we were suppose to have our first one last week but Fairfax schools had a "rain day" because of flooding! That rain was crazy here! We now have our first campaigners tomorrow morning before school in one of our teachers class rooms! I am teaching the lesson on Putting Jesus First, hopefully it will go well! : )
This last Monday we had our Junior/Senior Meeting where we invited any junior or senior that has been to club or just loves YL and wants to see their friends come out. We set a vision for them and run through the "whys" of club and then read the first YL club story from Dance, Children Dance. I feel like each week we get closer to our first club (Sept. 26) kids get more and more excited!
We also head out to Rockbridge tomorrow night for a work crew weekend! We have about 45 kids and leaders from our area (our area is 3 schools- South County, West Springfield & Robinson) It is so cool to see these kids so so excited to be with each other and serve Christ for a weekend!
Thats it for this week!
So I am going to try to post once a week (wed. or thurs.) to keep you all updated!
Again Thank you so much for all your prayers and support!
