Christ in Youth Conference
Our youth group is getting ready to head to CIY in Illinois this upcoming week, and they happened to be two sponsors short at the last minute due to some unforeseen schedule changes, so Marie and I decided to jump on board!
We had originally considered going months ago when the suggestion was brought up, but we didn’t think we were going to be able to at the time. We were still unsure of whether stuff was going to work out with it or not, but we decided to go ahead with it anyway and let God figure out the rest.
It’s been years since I’ve been to a CIY conference, and Marie has never been, so we’re both looking forward to it. It will be great to spend some more time with the awesome teens at our church, and it will be a great time to recharge ourselves as well. I think we both need it right now.
It’s funny how God gives you the right thing at just the right time. Sometimes it comes out of nowhere. And sometimes when you plan on something (or don’t plan on something), God gives you His plan instead.
Can’t wait for next week! Maybe I’ll post a video or something from the week when we get back.
What state are you all going to? I have probably been to like 9 CIY conferences and let me tell you when you’re not in charge and you’re a sponsor you have the time of your life! Go all out man.
I am so excited!
