Who doesn’t love bulleted lists? I do. And it has been a while.
- I think we had 27 students at LINC last night.
- To shake things up a bit - we sang songs and then we prayed.
- Literally - instead of me speaking for 20 or 30 minutes. We prayed.
- There were 6 different prayereas set up.
- Prayerea = Area where you pray.
- Students prayed for Family, School, Lost Friends, and LINC.
- There was also a prayerea for Repentance and Praising God.
- I really was amazed at how serious the largely middle school group took this time.
- Should I have said seriously?
- Lost Friends are friends that don’t know Jesus - not friends that you have lost.
- Afterwards we had pizza and tossed a disc around.
- Also - I redeemed myself in Guitar Hero this week.
Excluding some issues - the night went extremely well. It was great to see students writing the names of their friends who don’t know Jesus on a white board and then praying for them. I definitely think that some of them were uncomfortable with the idea of praying for the whole service. But in the end - I think that the majority of the students enjoyed or were impacted by the night.
Thank you Jesus for pulling that off.
Last night was really sick Blake. And I’m not just saying that to make you feel good about it. Even though you are just a bit mental with the whole “prayerea” thing. Prayer area is much more normal. But since when have you been normal???
good question.
