True Love Waits

Senior Camp 2011 - Morning service with Bro. Buxton preaching :)

At the end of his preaching, during altar call, he had a few of us pass out these little cards (no good picture for y'all unfortunately)

On the front it said, "True Love Waits - 1 Corinthians 6:16-20"

On the back it read,

"Dear Future Spouse,
I hereby choose to SAVE sex until I am in a committed marriage relationship with you.. Knowing this is the best choice for our health, emotions, and spirituality, I voluntarily choose to abstain from sexual activity until our wedding night. Putting aside whatever past I may have, I make this commitment today to you and to God for purity and to setting high standards for my life. once we are married, I will remain true to you, and you will be better able to trust me in my faithfulness to you."

ALL of us young people need to make this commitment, even if your not asked to sign a card stating your commitment to it.. It has to be in your heart. :) Personally, I don't like to sign things like these unless I've really prayed about it and I know FOR SURE I'm going to keep this promise. Don't just make a promise because you were told to, really take it to heart and don't take it lightly.

Your future spouse is really going to appreciate this promise :)

This is such a cool thing. It is so worth it to wait! God honors it and there is no greater gift to your future husband than purity!

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

Family Weekend (Day 2)

Go to "Family Weekend (Day 1)" here :) Day 2: Celebrate Uncle Jerry Sr. and Aunt Loretta's 45th wedding anniversary :) / Family Reunion SURPRISE!!!!!!!!! Get this.. my Uncle Jerry Sr. thought he was going to preach "Family Weekend" at Jerry Jr.'s church in Yuma. Lol. He thought it was just the church and their families. He called his son (Jerry Jr) and asked if Aunt Marg and Uncle Babs could come (remember, they didn't know it was the Rowell family that was actually there) so Jerry Jr said OF COURSE! :) LOL we had to keep the surprise from Uncle Jerry Sr and Aunt Loretta. (Waiting for the wonderful couple to arrive) My cousin Jerry Jr pretended like it was a normal service and when he gave the signal, we stood up and faced Uncle Jerry Sr and Aunt Loretta. They were soooo shocked! :) We started singing "Happy Anniversary to you" to the tune of  the "Happy Birthday" song. The service was sooo beautiful. They played their wedd
