Youth Convention 2006 lookin back...

So Its all over now and lives were changed and great things happened.

I already talked about Friday night so I will just finish and talk about Saturday and Sunday.

Saturday

So as all of you know Dona stayed at my place for the weekend which was really nice. I had a really good time with her. We are both crazy which made for some crazy fun together. :P haha
We didn't go to the afternoon service at the Trade and Convention Centre as we were still kinda tired and wanted to have some time to just chill and hangout together. So we got ready and Halley came and picked us up for church. Which was really nice of him. Man I can't believe that Halley even went on Sat night since he didn't have any sleep at all. He had 1 hour sleep all weekend what a guy he's got two jobs and he never gets to sleep at all. I feel bad for him and on top of that he hardly never gets to come to church that must be some hard.

Church right...
Bro.Mitchell preached an amazing message and the alter call was really good. I remember praying with Kim when Bro.Mitchell said that we should go and find our Youth Groups and go and pray with one another and get united in prayer. So we did. there was a ton of us at the alter I think actually everyone from our youth group came up we were all in a circle praying. Before I knew it I was slained out on the floor speaking in tongues. I was out. Not sure for how long but I know it was quite sometime. Halley and April had to help me up. As Halley wanted to get going and I was still on the floor outta it He was my drive home. So I got up and managed to get myself together. :)
After church we went to McDonalds with a few peeps that was fun. YAY McDonald's in the North/Norf end. So after McDonalds Sis.Morehouse drove me and Dona home but first we went up to Fort Howe to see if anyone was up there making out. Ha!!! The things that we do at night time. lol
We stopped at the convience store and got some milk for our soup that we love to eat. Came home got showers and started to watch Just friends and then we fell asleep. lol

Sunday morning at Mark Drive

Halley came and picked me and Dona up for church once again what a sweetheart :)
Church was amazing like wow! Bro.Mitchell is really an amazing preacher I liked him alot. He pretty much preached about soul winning and that we don't realize how many people that we associate with and pass by each day and don't even tell them a single word about God.
After church we went to Boston Pizza for dinner and I shared Cactus Nacho's with Kimberley oh and we shared a panzerotti roll too. It was some good let me tell ya. :)
Then Neil convinced me to go to the service in the afternoon at the Trade and Convention Centre. I really didn't want to go cause I was super tired and I just wanted to get all rested up and whatnot. But I went. We stayed for alittle bit then we were just soo tired.
So me and Dona and Mallory went back to my place and hungout and got changed for church again that night. Well after a bunch of confusion and taxi's taken and everything Halley finally came and picked us up for church once again and we went back to church.
Now church just wasn't the same on Sunday night it was weird really it was. I honestly felt like i was in a concert. I mean I could deal with the music and even the sticks I could really deal with that but when u get up there and shaking everything that you mamma gave you and then some and call that interperative signing and whatnot nope I don't agree with that at all. I honestly don't even think that something that was deaf would have even understood what they were doing up there on the stage. Bouncing around and whatnot. I mean I do believe in praising and worshipping God with your whole heart but I don't think that choreographed worship is the way to do it. Thats not letting the spirit guide you. Thats just like being at a concert or at at bar and seeing the latest dance moves. Nope Im sorry I was soo disgusted and disturbed with it all I had to get up and leave. I mean its pretty sad when you see some of your elders and preachers and whanot outside in the hallway bawling cause they can't believe what they are seeing come into our churches. No thats not right at all. It really hit my heart.
I came from the world those are some of the things that I left behind and I don't want to see that sorta stuff again.
Anyways I think that I am going to stop here cause if I don't I'm probably going to get myself into trouble or offend someone if I haven't already.
But this is my blog and Im free to speak my thoughts and opinions on everything right? Thats really all that I did.

Well other than that Dona left yesterday I miss her already. Crazy I know but I do. I love you Dona!!! :D

Now I'm just chilling and relaxing from a busy weekend.

I'm excited to move forward with God! I really really am. I have changed and I can see it in myself. I'm excited for what God is going to do in the next little while in my youth group and in my church. Tomorrow Pastor is givin us his vision presentation to the church so I can't wait to see what he wants to accomplish for the rest of this year!:)

Oh and I'm going to be start praise singing in church soon too I'm pretty excited about that I tell ya. :)

Well thats it for now

Chow!

God Bless
