Time to come home

Well, it's that time of the week. It's time to pack up and come home. Actually as we sit here right now everything is packed on the buses and we are waiting to have lunch. For those of you that don't know - as a personal favor to you- we don't leave until 2 pm so that we get in around 7 am . If we were to leave right after the final seesion of the week we would probably get in around 2 am.
God has been doing some pretty amazing things this week in the lives of your students. We have seen people take a hard look at relationships with friends. We have seen some call home to ask their parents forgiveness for attitudes. We have had some decide that it wasn't enough to just believe in God and they have taken the next step to say that they want to be a Christ follower. There is a big difference between the two.
As we get ready to leave there are many struggling with the fact that they have to leave the environment that they have been in for the past week. Not just the beach - the intimacy with God. They know that there are relationships that need to be fixed or changed. They know that there are life choices that need to be made about who they will hang out with and what they will do. They know that they need to honor their parents.
Parents, you have a great opportunity as your kids come home. Ask them questions. Find out how they are feeling. Your kids want a relationship with you even if you don't think they do.
We look forward to seeing you all in about 20 hours.

First off, thanks for NOT arriving in Warsaw at 2am. Secondly-what a great topic--relationships--I think every teenager can use a friendly nudge from parents, speakers or God, to head them in the right direction with relationships with their friends, boy/girlfriends and parents!
Amazing what God can do when we let Him!!
Safe travels...in my prayers!
