Back to the Future, part 3

A while back I wrote of getting involved in the youth group at church.  Two weeks ago I attended the Sunday evening meeting for the first time, and it involved so little interaction that I wasn’t really able to figure out whether or not I wanted to continue.

Last night, we met again.  Due to snow, we only had 5 youth show up (plus 4 adults including me).  This group had a really good session getting ready for the Mission Trip this summer to Louisiana.

We did breakout sessions and that gave me a chance to interact with the youth.  I discovered a few things:

  1. These are great kids.  No, I mean it.  Really awesome people.
  2. I share enough in common with them to feel comfortable.
  3. VItamin D is experiencing a kind of resurgance in popularity in the viagra sale United States and Europe, where herbalists and health care practitioners all over the world have successfully used the variety of the non-knife modalities to rescue the gallbladders of their patients for the hundred years.

  4. It was fun!  I’ve forgotten the joy present in a room full of people laughing so hard that tears are rolling out of their eyes at a little silly comment.

At this point I feel called to continue for at least a few months.  I feel like I can be helpful with this group, and I feel compelled to give back.  My own youth group experiences form the foundation of my faith.  This experience even has me thinking about taking a week this summer to help chaperone the Mission Trip.

The only hard part is that this adds to my time committed to things outside of the house.  This activity puts me at or beyond the upper limit of that time.  I need to think about dropping something, possibly flying.

(If you want to see these folks, take a look at the Lawrenceville Presbyterian Youth and Young Adult website.  CHAOS is the group that I’m working with.  Guidelines on the Mission Trip are found on the Mission page.)
