Now that I have my own kids and I’m missing them this week I find that a picture of them is like gold!   So let me try and paint you a picture that I wish I could have caught for you.  Imagine our 27 students crowding the front rows of the auditorium… I was in the third row with most of our students in sight. At one point in our worship I caught a glimpse that was so cool.  I saw the students fully engage, hands raised in awe, caught up in worship… truly an authentic God sized moment.  It was a picture that as a parent you can only hope to see your child in.  I’ve got to tell you that this group is really special!  I’m very encouraged and impressed at how this week has gone!

Today we’ll hit the beaches again in the afternoon and then we’ll head to the baseball game (Padres vs. Dodgers) tonight.  Tomorrow, we’ll be back to the normal training, sharing, and evening events.

Thanks for praying and joining us on this trip. Enjoy the pictures! –Jeff
