Hope you’re enjoying the beautiful fall weather and the changing seasons!
Zack and Tom had an amazing JOURNEY as we set out to watch Seth play football for our youth group time…only to get lost…and then show up just in time for halftime…But we did see #60 (Seth Swanson) in action as he fearlessly led the troops in the Quarterback and many other positions!
The JH Retreat at Covenant Point a couple of weekends ago was awesome! Thanks for a great time to all who participated–come this Sunday to DeerGrove to hear Teddy give a testimony as to how God worked in his life at the retreat!

Watch your back, Zack!
This past Sunday, the Senior High (SH) felt some Xtreme Impact when they whipped out the materials for a riveting game of 4 Square!
From there, Danny Jaderholm fearlessly led the way to a comeback win against Team Awesome in an intense game of Gator Ball!
Then, we ate some food out of the trash and engaged in a discussion about the fact that Jesus wants everything we have and are, not just our leftovers. Sometimes the things that we hold onto actually end up holding onto us, and we need to let go, and give God all that we are, so that we can follow Jesus where He leads us, everyday. As we continue to explore the book, Crazy Love, by Francis Chan, we are continually challenged to go all in for Jesus.
Oh, this cookie from the trash actually tastes pretty good!-Sara Magnuson
