JCX Tuesday 5/4/10

JCX Tuesday … And. Here. We. Go.

-It was one of those nights together where it felt as if we all knew why we were there, what we are focused on and how we hope to accomplish it. Great to hang out and be together. Here’s what I’m pumped about: the leaders group! Some great ideas are coming from those youth. They have a desire to serve and love. Are they perfect for the job? Nope! And that’s why I’m glad they are apart of this opportunity to lead. Some will see these youth and wonder why they are “leaders” because they see flaws. Truth is, the youth stepping up to lead are youth facing the flaws in their life. They are ready to move ahead and grow in their faith. So, to Seth, Eric, Emily, Chelsea, Robert and Shelby … It’s a privilege to dream and to serve with you!

-Ok, we have a variety of peeps that are apart of the fam @JCX on Tuesday. Because of that, some aren’t to sure how this “community time” works. We decided to “show them” and explain some things in a way that wasn’t condemning, funny, but got the point across. Here’s what we came up with:


-The teaching was out of the final chapter of 2 Timothy. We focused on “keeping your head in all situations”. So great to see the words of Paul, to Timothy, have huge influence in our lives today. Our phrase of the night was “Keep your head”. Our leaders group each got a balloon with a head on it to remind them of this truth.

-We have about 15 Frosh Best Buddies. That’s rad! These peeps will love and support our new Frosh that move into our JCX community. I’m excited about who wants to step up and mentor/lead these new peeps.

-So much fun coming soon: Hurricane Harbor on June 16th. CIY: Move July 19th -24th. Angel’s game: July 28th. Catalina: August 11th. Plus, serving at the Blessing Center, Youth Hope, and study lunches all throughout the summer. Calendars are available this Sunday.
