DYG-The Drive and Night One

Faith Community sent 13 participants and 5 chaperons to the 2008 District Youth Gathering in San Diego. Our spirited and spirit filled group had a great drive over and on Friday night, we received our schedules, tee shirts and for the first time, saw our theme for the weekend.

One. One faith. One community. One church.

Our bible verse theme is “There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God the Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.” Ephesians 4:4-6

Other notes and memories from day one:

1. Pastor Craig and the mouse.
2. Leaving at 3:15pm really means leaving at 4:00pm.
3. Journey songs can be overdone.
4. Four boys in a room is three too many.
5. Starbucks closed at 9:00pm.
6. New chaperons are fresh meat.
7. Curfew at 11:00pm really means curfew at 12:30am.
8. Surrendering control of the truck stereo was a bad idea.
9. Lutherans rock and get it right most of the time.
10. Sue Zieg did a lot of work to get this pulled off.
