The Last Round Up

Today was the last "official" round up at Kwest. The guys staff always gathers together at the front porch of the chuck wagon to cover after noon schedules, have a little trivia, and talk about prayer needs.

Today was the final one for the summer of 2011. It's kind of hard to believe that it's come to an end.

As I round up my thoughts, I am incredibly humbled by what the Lord has done. The summer started off with kids smiling and coming to know the Lord, and it has certainly ended that way as well. We are all thankful for everything that has happened and we give credit to the Lord. We also know that it's not over yet, so we have some fun things to look forward to (like that Atlantis party tonight).

Round up is sort of sacred as are the steps we sit on every day at 3:25pm. Lots of memories, lots of laughter, and lots of ministry happens everyday. If you ever have been our on guys staff, you know what I am talking about. It's one of those things that make Kwest so special.

I am going to miss round up...

Encouragement Rocks

When older brother creatively designs a ribbon to encourage his youngest brother, dad smiles ear to ear. Imagine how encouraged little Colton was when his older brother spoke so kindly of him!
You know how it feels to be encouraged by someone. Pass out a "ribbon" or two to someone you know. Encouragement can literally change the course of someone's life!

Liberty North Tennis Kanakukers

I was able to see some Kanakuk tennis studs play their matches yesterday in Kansas City. Daniel Ohlhausen, Austin Casel, Will Stouffer, along with other Kanakukers Jackson Triplett and Marc Ohlhausen and the rest of the Liberty North guys are winning their conference! Great job guys! These three guys pictured are all headed to K-2 this summer!
