BIGTIME FUN... after tutoring (of course)
for those of you who haven't seen it, this is inside of our trailer. We have 3 Xbox's and 2 PS2's... oh, and then there's the popcorn and snow-cone machines...

Riding in Style
We headed over to Hickory Grove at 4:30 and J C Groves and myself met with about 25-30 kids. Today was more of a relaxed day at Hickory Grove. We usually do a Bible Study on Tuesday, but today was more of a one-on-one time where we just play with the kids and talk to them about stuff going on in their lives. We have a great relationship with these kids and they know we are there for them. I love to tell them that Jesus loves them and that they are so special to God and to us. They hear so much negative stuff every day and we are there just to "love them like Jesus". They are so open to the Gospel... they could teach our churches something.

Group of teenagers stop by to chat at Hickory Grove... refreshments are always a big hit
Then I dropped off the trailer at home and headed to Dalton to the YDC(youth detention center)where I help with the music, preach, and counsel with the 30+ boys and girls that come out for the church service. This is such a great part of the ministry of Young America. Most of the kids we deal with either have already been in, or are headed to YDC or prison. Praise God we got to lead 2 boys to ask Christ into their hearts for the first time tonight.

May all that we do bring glory to the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
I LOVE MY JOB!!!
