YLC 2007

I have the "I like bananas (bananas!) but papayas are sweet" song stuck in my head. I guess if that's the worst of it then things are pretty good. Yeah, things are pretty good!

It is always in invigorating experience being in a space with over 650 teens hopping, dancing, and singing. The Holy Spirit is soooo energizing! You could feel the difference in the space.

How awesome was it that we got a group picture with are very own Bishop Sartin? I don't think that I have ever seen him without a smile on his face. And to think even he gets nervous sometimes when he invites friends over. I'm glad that he reminded us in his homily that there is a place and a job for each of us in every event. Sometimes it is to be the participant, others it is to prepair, and still others it is to serve. I hope that we can all look at this year and find times to do each. So that we are not always a Mary or a Martha but find our selves as both.

Hopefully we will have pictures posted soon. I am still figuring out the in and outs of this whole blog thing.

What was your favorite part of YLC 2007?
Why should others join next year?
Is this a Leadership Conference or a Youth Rally?
What's the difference?

I'd love to hear your thoughts and comments.

Let's continue to keep eachother, St. Mary Church, and Youth Ministry in our prayers.
