Embrace Chicago Recap

Couple of thoughts about the jr. high "embrace" Chicago trip:

1. I love Jr. Highers!

2. Every young person should take a trip and serve other people (hopefully in returning home, they begin to serve where they live)

3. The man who led the Good News Soup Kitchen said, "There should be no soup kitchens!  The issue of those who have and those who have nots should not exist. "  Beautiful idea...could this really happen?

4. Your relationship and mine with Jesus is a process and a journey.  You don't become just like Jesus over night...it takes days, weeks, months, years to become who he wants us to be.  The important things is that we keep moving closer to Him and His ways.

5. I can't wait to "embrace" NYC with the High School and College Students.
