The last week of May was special for me. On Monday, May 22, I got to watch several boys I’ve watched grow up graduate from Palo Duro High School. The kids we work with overcome so many odds to obstacles to become graduates (oftentimes the first in their family to do so). Later that week …
Easter, warm weather, and fun with big crowds made for a great month! It flew by and the kids are counting down the days to summer time.
We spent the month of March looking at the Easter story, playing some crazy egg games, enjoying a week of Spring Break, and trying to play outside in that crazy Amarillo wind! The first 3 months of the year flew by, but that’s what happens when you’re having fun!

We wrapped up a fast and furious summer last month. We talked about God’s Math and how it can apply to our worries about school and our relationships with friends. We talked about seeking and adding God first, subtracting negative thoughts, ending division and seeking unity, and how God could multiply our small acts of …
Our annual favorite three days of the year took place in early July. We loaded up 40 campers and adults and headed to Hidden Falls Ranch for hiking, swimming, climbing, S’mores, archery, worship, and more fun that should be legal.
