The Journey begins (09-09-2007)

For those of you who are curious about what is going on next week, I am offering you a rare sneak peak into what is to come. The theme for our year will be Discovering the Sacred. As a kickoff for this theme, our first official life-night will feature the hit movie, The Journey Begins, which is a spoof on The Princess Bride. Having now used up my weekly quota of italicized words, I will no longer be mentioning any movie, book or article titles. The aforementioned movie spoof is currently under production by myself and the core team. I have no idea how the whole thing will turn out, but whether it is good or bad, it is going to be ridiculous and in my opinion that’s a good thing. I hope to see all of you next week at Life-teen so we can make this the greatest youth group experience of your life. Or at least second greatest.

Lifeteen Bar-B-Que:
I have been shamelessly plugging our Fall kickoff barbeque to just about anyone who will listen and is under the age of 19 for the last several weeks. I really encourage all of you to come and join us after the Life-teen Mass over at the school for some free food. Not only do I want all the youth to come, but I want them to bring their families. That’s right, moms are allowed to skip cooking dinner and tell the rest of the family that they are eating out tonight. It will be just like going to a restaurant, except different, and better…Never mind, just come and enjoy yourselves. Just to reassure those of you who live in terror of actually being forced to eat something that I have cooked, I will have nothing to do with the actual grilling process. It will be a great opportunity to meet all of the new volunteers and maybe throw a frisbee around. I hope to see all of you there.
