I just have a big fat praise for our youth group at my home church.

This weekend we had a booth at one of the bazillion area fairs going on at this time of year. We made hemp faith bracelets and handed out tracts to close to 3000 people.

Saturday morning was like a monsoon swept thru and the crowd was very sparce, but by noon, the sun was shining and it was jammed. Those kids just stood there in the wind and rain and did what was necessary, persevering till the good weather came around.

We got to do some awesome witnessing. The current events make it a little easier to start a conversation. Many are questioning, searching, just wanting to talk. I am so thankful that I have been blessed with being a part of this wonderful ministry. Our teens are so on-fire for the Lord, it just gets me all teary eyed. (and Steve can vouche for the fact that I am a hard-hearted Hannah wink

That is great that they hung in there, of course they were probably just afraid to leave as they would have to pass by the strange sobbing, smiling woman near the exit.........
