Where to begin?

That is the question for this blog. After this amazing weekend in Gatlinburg at Winterfest, we really don't know where to begin. We won't bore you with every detail but we do want to share some of our highlights over the weekend so you can see how God was at work in Gatlinburg this weekend. Some of the cool REAL GIRLS moments included:
- a girl named Sarah from Germany who wanted to know how to go back home and share Christianity with her friends there.
- meeting Taylor and Tiffany and seeing what is in store for them (you go girl!)
- finally getting to meet Jenna after months of emailing! can't wait till May!
- getting to see our home youth groups......we love Tusculum, Otter Creek and Rural Hill!
- a sweet girl named Kelsey coming by our booth and teaching us that you don't have to see with your eyes to really SEE!
- watching our huge support team work so hard.....thanks parents!
- hugging a mother who lost her daughter just 10 weeks ago and being amazed at the strength God has given her.
- meeting Zach Hunter and hearing about what God is doing through his ministry Loose Change to Loosen Chains.
- Drew and Dave have a cool ministry YEE. And they make cool videos!
Wow, what a weekend we had! For those of you who joined us there it was great to see you. If you were unable to join us, we missed you and look forward to seeing you soon. God is doing amazing things through RG and we can't wait to see what HE has in store next. Thanks for being a part of this ministry with us!
And don't forget to L1 and L2. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. Love your neighbor as yourself." Do these and the rest falls into place.
Thanks Dudley, Johnny, Chad, Jeff, Carla, and the rest of the Winterfest Team for this weekend!
Stay REAL!
