Another Coffee House? Can it be??

Yes it can! Specific date will be announced soon but it will be in the month of January ( or JAMuary for jamming at the coffee house if that will help you remember better). To help you remember the awesome coffee house that went down in June, here are a few pictures to help refresh your memory! If you would like to perform, contact me soon so I can get you down (that is if you pass our grueling tryout that is ever so hard). Check soon for the date in JaMuary! Get ready to JAM!

The good ol' amish nights...



Howdy.
Busy busy. That describes my feelings of life a the moment. It really isn't completely true but I feel anxious. I don't know what that's all about but it's weird. Maybe stressed is a better word. I am not sure.

Well this evening we had an exciting night at youth group and the theme was AMISH NIGHT. Now I know it wasn't the greatest night to have after those shootings in that amish school... But we had the idea already thought about before! I promise. We had fun dressing up and playing games. It was just an overall fun time had by all (I hope...). I will add some pictures to show the joyous time.

I have also lately been thinking about The Great Commission and how we aren't really doing much about it. In reality, how many non Christian friends do you have? Seriously. I am sure not too many that are super close. Sometimes there are those who are close but I have been noticing in my church, some people I observe don't. I am one that also falls into that category. It feels pretty shameful to admit that! We are supposed to go into the world and tell people about the wonderful news of Jesus! This whole thing of being a hypocrite has been on my mind lately with thinking of being a Christian. It's a lot to think through I find. Any thoughts on what your opinion is on the subject, let me know. I would like to hear it.

Christmas banquet at work is in a month and I have to tell them if I am going. Scary thought because I am new and I don't know many of them at all. I suck at making up my mind lets just say. Well I would also like to point out that this post is pretty much perfect in writing. So if someone reads this and tries to scrutinize it, you can't. :)

Tweeking



Here is some pictures that I tweeked a bit for my enjoyment. The romantic bench shot is from a lovely walk I have enjoyed. The next is of two cool girls just being themselves and I also enjoy this shot very much because of all the memories wrapped up in the picture. Enjoy!
This post really doesn't have much depth or insight but just plain fun. But I have this friend who also spurs me on to want to take cool pictures. You can look at his amazing stuff by clicking on "A Talented Friend" under the title "Things to Check Out". It is worth a look. Really.

The love...

I love music. I think it's a wonderful way of expressing yourself and a God sent way of lifting His name up. There doesn't have to be words. It can just be music. It is so soothing to the soul. When words are added, it can be even more glorifying. I had a dream and I have this ambition to learn how to play the guitar. I won't go into the dream, but it was a dream that I think God gave to me. Don't worry, it wasn't about me thinking I become a big star in hollywood or anything. I know I shouldn't quit my day job or anything like that! I would like to do this for personal reasons. I am wondering if anyone knows someone they might recommend that could maybe give me some lessons. Not many if they don't want but just some. But I need some help with learning. So any suggestions, please let me know. Well I'm out for now. Have a great weekend that is coming! And to all of those who are in the midst of midterms, GOOD LUCK! Loves.

Concert Awesomeness!

Hey all! Last night was a pretty fun night of ringing ears and fellowship. The band called Stabilo who originate from Vancouver, were playing here in Edmonton last night. It was an awesome concert and I was shocked at how many people I knew at the concert! I saw people from my old church and saw people from junior high days! It was crazy! It was really fun though. If you haven't heard of Stabilo, then you should look into it. Well Thats all I got to say right now. I think I am a music junkie... Is that a good or bad thing?
