TeenPact National Convention!

This past week Zach, Mom and I went to the TeenPact National Convention! We had a great week hanging out with friends from various states, being challenged by some fantastic speakers, and playing/watching Ultimate Frisbee!

Zach played in the Ultimate Frisbee tournament with the team from Missouri~The Grass Stains. They had a great time playing and really played very well. Although they didn't win, they made it farther then anyone was expecting them too. They had only practiced together as a team once before they got to camp!


The Missouri Frisbee team plus the cheerleaders! :)

I had a great time with some very dear friends of mine!! Sarah (on the right) surprised me by telling me that she wasn't going to be at camp, and then showing up!! It was a wonderful surprise!! Both Sarah and Virgina (on the left) are great friends of mine from Texas. It was so fun to get to see a bunch of people from Texas again!
We were waiting for the next speaker to get started! (Three Sarah's in a row! Sarah on the left, Sarah in the middle, and Sarah on the right!!!)
While we were there this week, Zach and I were made "honorary members" of the group of kids from Texas. We knew most of them from our two years of TeenPact in Texas already. It was fun to be a Texan again. ;)

Some of the speakers we were privileged to get to listen to were Dr. Jeff Meyers, from Summit Ministries, Chad Warren, formerly from Worldview Academy, and Lila Rose, founder of Live Action. All of the students there (over 350) were challenged and equipped to live for Christ and to make a difference in our culture.

We had a great week at camp and can't wait until next year!!! ~Sarah
