Too busy not too.....

What's up everybody, I realize this email with find most of you either on Spring Break or vacation this week so please enjoy it and what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

I just wanted to send out a few thoughts to ponder for the week.

One thought that keeps floating around my mind lately is this: We are too busy not to pray!

I am thankful for Kaleah's emails to pray for a different kid every day for a week and though I haven't been 100% with it every day it has been a great reminder that it is the power of Christ alone that will change kids lives and not our program or anything we do for that matter.

It is his power working through us that we believe in faith and as we pray will transform kids lives.

I'll share a quick story that really nails the point home for me. I think I may have sent out an email to you guys a while back right after our ski trip that I received a text from KC saying he wanted to meet with me to talk about Purpose.

After about two years of leading a Campaigner group of all girls I was so anxious for the opportunity to pour into even one guy's life.

Fast forward and after at least 8 failed attempts to hang out with KC I'm realizing that even my persistence and best of intentions aren't getting me any where.

I need to pray and I'm way too busy not too pray.

Aren't we all for that matter. All of us are insanely busy , every single one of us is overwhelmed in one way or another.

Yet our efforts at putting together an amazing Club , taking a gazillion kids to camp, and doing Contact work is all futile unless we are lifting it up to the Lord and being empowered by the power of his Holy Spirit.

One quick Bidnez note: April 1st is fast approaching and we need to know by than how many kids we are taking to camp. By know I don't mean our best guess, I mean we actually have a deposit of $75 in hand. So I will be sending you a list tomorrow of kids names, and numbers so please let's not wait to make calls we have less than a month now.

In the past I have tried assigning certain kids to certain leaders and that has always been kind of confusing so this year I'm just sending out the list and to be honest I don't care if we all call the same kids/ parents because eventually they will either say please stop calling me or yes my son/ daughter can go.
