Do you have any good Chapel Pike memories you’d like to share?

Ski trip... was it 2004? I taught Jess and all the girls how to spoonerize (hessica jolland, helody melvie, etc etc)

Also the goodwill trip where Jess and Paige both fit into those HUGE pants (I'm pretty sure it was those two)

A brief message to the youth group.

Hey "The Net!" I hope you guys are doing well. I know there are many of you that I do not know and I hope you guys know what you have gotten yourself into by joining THE BEST YOUTH GROUP EVER in Marion, and to those I do know, good job at staying strong and staying in the youth group! Its a great place to get closer to God, to make lifelong friends, and to have so crazy stories (seriously, I had to eat a pigs foot)

I have a mom (Linda), a cat (Callie), a dog (Sadie), a dad (Jim), a step-mom (Christine), one 1/2 sister (Laura) & one 1/2 brother (J.J.) and when I refer to them I consider them my brother and sister not 1/2. My mom works at the local Courthouse as a court reporter, my dad and step-mom both work at a local steel alloy (?) factory called Haynes International, she works in Roll Grind I believe and he works in maintenance, he fixes machines that break. My sister is 16 and just got her license and is a sophomore at North Miami High School and plays Volley Ball and manages the Wrestling team. My brother is 15 and is a freshman at North Miami High school, he is in wrestling and track and field.

A brief message to the youth group.
Pray hard. Listen harder. Always pray for God's will in your life and relationships. Follow where he leads you. Draw close to him always, read and follow his Word. =]

It’s always great to have a place you can hang out without the normal stress of school and the world.

Take advantage of the place ‘The Net’ gives you. Take advantage of the people that want to hear and share your burdens.
