Have You Enjoyed the Live Blogging from Youth Congress?
Posted by: David Bunch
I have so enjoyed reading the live blogging from Youth Congress 2007. It has definitely proved to be the next best thing to being there, and I must say that every time I read the blog I had this empty feeling in my stomach like I was missing the greatest thing going on the planet.
As a quick note, the reason we did not plan to go and take our youth group is that here in the South, school starts really early and usually Youth Congress happens the same week that school starts.
The first day of school got pushed back this year for some (to Monday) while for others school began yesterday. Note to GYD-push Youth Congress back to the end of July so we Southerners can bring our students!
One other note about the blog: I want some more details about Thursday night's altar call with Bro. Tenney and the prophecy that went forth thru Bro. Howell. You guys kind of left us hanging on that one.
Godspeed to all the weary youth workers as you make your sojourn home from Youth Congress 2007!

I have enjoyed the blogging - where else would I have found out who was the voice for Dora Explorer? And I can't wait to hear the reports of the service projects. That is absolutely one of the best things to ever happen at a convention. I hope this will be a part of any convention ever held.

Amen about pushing Congress back to July! I'm a teacher and a youth leader, and was unable to take my kids because of school too. I've been in a semi-state of depression all last week as a result! I'm dying to have the DVDs but I don't think they are on sale quite yet.

My daughter sobbed her heart out when she realized her school started the very day NAYC started. She had worked hard to raise her money and everything. I felt terrible for her! I totally echo the call to push youth congress to July. Her school starts earlier and earlier every year.
