YC

We're back from a crazy weekend spent in Edmonton at YC! This was our first year ever going and we loved it! When the conference started on Friday night, I was overwhelmed with emotions as I sat in a stadium filled with 17 thousand people who were there to praise, or learn more about God. Living in our world that is so consumed with sin, it was great to have a weekend that was focused only on God. It was so encouraging to be able to know that there ARE people out there who don't want to conform to the world but want to be set apart for Christ. What an amazing experience it was to worship God with all these fellow believers!


We took about 30 youth from our church. During the day, we tagged along with them to all the different concerts and sessions. I was so glad to be with a group of younger girls who didn't like the heavy loud music :)


I thought this was too funny not to post. You can tell this was a tiring weekend. This is Chris from our youth, who fell asleep during the Tobymac concert. If you don't know who Tobymac is, he was probably one of the loudest concerts there :)



Some fun pictures



My good looking hubby enjoying the concert, even though he doesn't look happy, he is actually enjoying himself :)
