This last month has seen over 7000 young people, youth pastors, and chaperones come through the 2 annual youth conf. we hold here at Bethany for the great 220 youth ministry. This year God poured out His Spirit at both conf. and I couldn’t have been more pleased with what I know God has done in the lives of all involved, including me! I will admit that it was a little different having these conferences again without my beloved wife but God’s grace was upon me and for the first time since 04 I was headed back and forth without Amy by my side. I know she was watching from the sides of heaven and rooting us on in our quest to reach and disciple as many of this precious generation as possible. ( us being me, Jonathan, and the rest of my 220 team, who by the way are the best in the world!)
God has truly honored me to have great support in way of my family, staff, and thousands of kids who I don’t know personally but have shown such great love. This will be a year to remember how God’s grace carried me through what could have been a painful experience and yet by His anointing and blessing I was able to not only make it through but see the best year’s conf. ever. Thank all of you for your prayers. We are taking back this generation one student at a time!
