This Saturday I am going to California for a week! Most of you know that I am a 9th grade leader at my church's youth group and, we are taking 25ish 9th graders down to Cali for a good ol' time! We'll be riding super fast and scary roller coasters at Magic Mountain Six Fags, singing "Its a Small World" at DisneyLand, and tanning it up on Newport Beach. Ahhh... sounds pretty dang perfect... despite the 20 hour drive down there and the 20 hour drive back (of which I'll be driving I might add...).
And therefore, if you by chance think about it, please pray for our safety as we drive down and back. There are three vans and 6 drivers going down and we are all "acceptable" drivers according to my church's insurance people who have approved us of being good enough to drive kids in 12 passenger vans... but I don't claim to be perfect and I know everyone else who will be sharing the highway with us won't be perfect drivers too. So, that being said, yes - pray for safety.
Oh, and if you think about it, pray for good weather. I'm sick of Seattle weather and I need some good lovin' by the sun again. California is the perfect remedy except for the fact that currently the forecast is predicting rain while we are there. It seems like I just can't get away from the rain. But prayer works, so if we all pray then maybe the sun will come out to play.
I guess you could pray for sanity as well. I mean, I am going with junior highers. And all we eat is fast food. Enough said.
But I'm still excited! These kids are amazing and super fun to hang out with. And, at least its a "vacation" away from the routine of life here - and that sounds good to me.
