The final day is here!

God is at work powerfully in our lives.  This morning Geoff Safford challenged us to pursue righteousness in light of the Gospel.  Jesus is our righteousness and he has won the victory over sin and death.  we are declared to be innocent/righteous in the eyes of God through the blood of Christ shed for us.

Last night we spent significant time in prayer and then celebrated communion.  After the last Supper, Jesus led his disciples to Gethsemane.  There Jesus faced the agony of his decision to become sin for us.  We however don’t go to Gethsemane.  We go to the throne completely forgiven by the matchless grace of Jesus.  And for that, we celebrated last night.   When I can I will show you the video of 5000 teens celebrating before the throne. 

We are all very tired and ready to get home.  We leave about 9:30pm and plan to be in Holdrege about 3 pm tomorrow.  Please pray for our bus drivers and for safety on the roads.  Pray also for each of us.  We have made significant decisions this week.  Our collective desire is to change our school, community and the world.  Over 100 students from Phelps County are here.  Imagine what this army can do for Jesus in our Schools.
