Here's how it works: Let's say that you're the first name on the list like...REAGAN! Reagan will make contact with Samantha at some point each day. Samantha will contact Tori...Tori will connect with Bailey and so on. The last person on the list...let's just say CODY! Cody contacts the first person on the list...Reagan. That's the loop! Ask how you can pray for your Tag Teen...if they did their reading...maybe talk about the reading...stuff like that. Be an encourager!! You can call, text, e-mail, IM, pass in the hallways whatever. JUST MAKE CONNECTIONS! Simply find your name below then start contacting the person below you each day. You'll also be contacted daily by the person above you...get it? Got it? GOOD!

Sold-Out September Cranks Up!

Sold-Out September has officially begun! We are currently making the "TagTeen" accountability assignments and will post them here ASAP! Yesterday you should have read up to the "Day 1" reading. Read the "Day 1" reading today. We're trying to stall a bit since we sold-out of books yesterday. We're placing a new order and will get the books out by Wednesday! We're praying for each of you that God would bless you and empower you during SOS! BE STRONG!

FIELDS OF FAITH

Don't forget tomorrow night (Wednesday, October 14) is "Fields of Faith"! We've invited the Lee FCA to Crestview for "Tailgate-a-palooza"! Brian Jumper will be crankin' up the grill with some groceries you won't want to miss. This all kicks-off at 6 pm in the Crestview west parking lot near the youth entrance. We'll also have inflatables, Wii's, videos, and tons of other stuff goin' on. At 7 pm we'll load up and head over to Grande Stadium for FOF where we'll worship and hear awesome testimonies from students like Lee linebacker John Poe. We'll also be blown away by our guest speaker Rich Garza. Rich played in the NFL for the Denver Bronco's and has a testimony that God has already used to lead 9 students to Christ Monday night at Lee FCA! Our evening will end around 9 pm and your parents can pick you up back at Crestview. Bring a friend and we'll party like the saved!!!!

An Awesome Sunday!

We had an awesome day in the Crestview Student Ministry! More guests in Morning Blast and learned how Love Risks! Youth Choir...Acteens...The Tribe...Ultimate @ Abell...Rosa's! Gearing-up for Fields of Faith next Wednesday at Grande! Have an awesome week!

Another Banner Day! 5 Crestview Students called to the Ministry!

Today was also wonderful with the students focusing on how to apply God's love to their daily lives. Dave challenged them to "Live within the Ring". He used a circle and divided it in to two sections, one being "The presence of the Lord" and the other half being "The Principles of God's Word". Students were challenged to make choices in life based on living within God's presence and His Principles. Several of our students recommitted their lives to "Living within the Ring" and 5 Crestview students shared that they felt God's call on their lives to full time service in ministry.

God is amazing and has touched each of us in a special way. The most incredible thing to me has been watching as the Lord is unifying our students. At dinner and at worship tonight we noticed that students were sitting and visiting across AGES and groups. This is a specific prayer of ours in ministry. Crestview, get ready.....You might just catch the vision as our students lead out in revival!

A few additional things: Parents, We will be dismissed from celebration by 10:30. We hope to be on the road by 11am. (12:00pm Texas time). Sadly, even with only two stops on the entire trip down, the drive was still a total of 13 hours. This will push back our arrival time to sometime between 3-4 am. We want to appologize for it being such a late pick up time but it just is what it is....Hey...it could be worse...YOU could be on that bus for 14 hours, right! =0)

We are looking forward to getting home and seeing you guys and sharing in person what the Lord has done! Oodles of love! Donna

ps Please pray for a family from DFW who is close to Nate and who were in a previous church of ours (where Nate grew up). Kim and Anthony Brandon, mother and daddy to Alicia and Shelby (twins who soon to leave for college) and Vanessa (Aggie grad and newlywed) were in a tragic accident tonight. Kim and Anthony were both killed - along with two other people in other cars. Please lift up the Brandon family.
