Here We GO!!!

By 8pm tomorrow night, 18 high school students, myself and three other adults will be making the 14 hour drive to New Orleans for the Jesus, Justice and Jazz Youth Gathering. At church on Sunday, I could tell that the excitement was building and the various Facebook posts of the youths were geared toward the trip.

This will be my first experience with this sort of thing and I don't really know what to expect, but I am sure it will be a fun, rewarding, and hopefully, spiritually fulfilling experience for everyone attending.

We will try to post to this blog as much as we can, when we can, so that everyone can keep up to date with what we are doing. Sometimes, it might just be photos, other times, we will be able to describe what we are doing, seeing, feeling, and experiencing.

We want to thank everyone who has supported us in this endeavor to go to New Orleans. We could not have done it without your help!

Wish us luck, safety, fun and fellowship!

L8r!

  1. I will definitely be checking the blog and I will try my hardest to not text my daughter. I gave her strict instructions to text me when she wakes up and when she gets in at night at least, any other times will be a bonus for me! Have a great time. I am sure you will all have lots of fun stories to tell when you return.
