I hope everyone had a great Fourth of July weekend. One would think a holiday weekend would be a big down time for our youth program, but as those of you who are really familiar with our ministry know there is no such thing as down time. We therefore had a number of things going on this past weekend, starting on the 4th itself. A big thanks to Ben for taking some of our youth charter boat fishing on lake Michigan that morning (and by morning I mean they went out at 5am). As you can tell they not only had fun, but caught quite the haul of fish. Also a big thanks to the eight students who volunteered to give up part of their holiday to help the Oostburg Optimist Club with a game stand at the Oostburg 4th celebration. Finally, the weekend concluded with our outdoor worship service at church, with many of our students in the praise band (which did a fantastic job).
As for me we had Andrea's family in town this weekend, so it was quite crazy, but I was still able to enjoy myself. That was probably helped by prepping for the weekend by eating 2 1/2 racks of ribs Thursday night at Jerry's Oldtown, the best ribs ever. Sheboygan's 4th celebration and fireworks really impressed me for a smaller city. Other then that I actually did get to rest a little and gear up for our big high school mission trip to Houma, LA that leaves on Saturday.
