HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, I hope everyone had some good turkey, and no vegetable jello (only valid for my family members) haha. well me and pops had a great day,well, what we spent together anyway... we got up and cooked the turkey together, and he taught me all the tricks to making a perfect Thanksgiving feast. I actually cleaned the turkey (ewww) and stuffed it. But it was fun to have some fun cooking w/ my dad. Then I ate for like 15 mins after like 6 1/2 hours of cooking. it was funny cus we could only find a 13lbs turkey at last minute, so we have so much food left over, so if anybody wants any, dont be afraid to ask! lol. we're going to the store tomorrow to get more tupperware for all the leftovers we had today! how sad is that? lol. well anyway, i'm going to go have pie with my popsy bear! love you all and have a great thanksgiving, see ya'll 3 lbs heavier! lol.

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!

what to say

Well guys, the prayers i guess are working, lauren woke up from her coma, her dad came into cold stone to let me know, when he was there he showed me some pretty gruesome pictures of the accident and the blazer that she flipped in. There had to be a reason why God kept her here because there is no explanation why she lived through that. Though they still arent sure if the internal bleeding will stop. When i went to see her she was in a full body cast and the only part of her body visible was from her eyebrows to the bottom of her lower lip. I was told that it may take at least 6 weeks before she can sit up straight, and about a year before she will be able to walk, but God worked miracles, and i'm sure that he will work them with the recovery also. She's able to recall some of the accident, and up until the paramedics got there. The guy who was driving is doing ok, he's out of the hospital, but the kid in the passenger seat has a broken neck, and should be released some time this week. The driver said that as he was trying to get the blazer off of lauren, that she called him her hero, and that he was going to save her life. crazy to hear somthing from somone who you put in that position. but anyway. thank you anyone and everyone who has prayed for her and please continue to pray. I love you all. And never forget that God really does work miracles and he does have a purpose for you.

please pray

Hey guys, I know this might be asking alot of some people, but i know that this will come through... please pray for my friend lauren...
Lauren is a 17 year old girl who was in a car accident this past weekend. She was sitting in the backseat of a Blazer when they hit a curve going too fast, and the blazer flipped at least 3 times. Lauren was thrown from the blazer and was hanging out the window while it was flipping, she is alive, after recessitating her a few times at the accident and once at the hospital. She has broken all of her ribs, both arms, her kidney was smashed and her liver is no longer functioning properly. She has brain contusions, a broken jaw, nose, and cracked her skull. When the Blazer finally landed, Lauren was completly out of the blazer and it was resting on her arm. She's still in very critical condition, and all i'm asking is for prayer, for her, and her family, and friends. Pray for anything, but mostly comfort for her, and all the ones close to her who have to see her like this. Thank you so much, and i'll keep you updated on how she's doing.

Decipleship

well today's youth topic rocked the socks this week, it was so cool to talk about the real world things that actually happen, and then find out that you're not the only one struggling with these petty little things that are boulders in our walk with God. It's just awesome to know that we have such a great place where we can openly talk and share our feelings without being judged on our convictions or our problems. its still discouraging sometimes to know that we have such a strong youth group, yet none of us actually "know" eachother, except for the select few. I think that's all going to change soon though with the homework that Brett gave to us, and the fact that we almost have to get close because the small group situation, you cant just sit there and not be noticed, i mean, even andrew talks, i thought he was almost mute...sorry, you're just so quiet sometimes.... but its that people are interacting, and actually getting what youth is supposed to be about. I love what some people shared tonight, and i wish that we could always open up like that, and not take a specific night for it to come out. but its improvement none the less. I love you guys and anyone who has seen anyone in our youth can't deny that he is working wonders in all of our lives. and nothing in the end will go unnoticed by God.
