Jeremy from Manitoba

-
Jeremy Sawatzky spoke at our youth group tonight. Normally, I steer clear of Wednesday night youth meetings (having retired from youth ministry a dozen years ago.)

Yet, tonight I volunteered to be in charge. I wanted to introduce Jeremy.

Jeremy is my blogger buddy from Manitoba. He is a Youth for Christ Director, and is doing some amazing work reaching young people for the Lord.

Although we had become aquainted through our blogs, we'd never met face to face until today. That was a delightful meeting!

Jeremy did a great job connecting with the kids. He's a gifted communicator, and everybody loved him.

After having a few people in my congregation go off to seek internet romance, it's kind of refreshing to see something positive from an internet connection

    I have had the pleasure of knowing Jeremy for the past 5 years or so. I have even worked with him at YFC. I am glad to see that he was well recieved and that he can share his stories with others.

If This Is Not A Place. . .

If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema
