February 29-22 IVCF Living Stones conference

Annie and I
The Stewardship Team (Minus Kelly) It was a great conference but also sad because it is bring about change. Next year none of these wonderful people will be at Wooster. But it is exciting because they are all just going on to new and exciting ministry experiences. But they will be greatly missed.
Our WCF Crew at Living StonesPaul explaining why a "Snuggie" (A blanket with sleeves) is such a handy device. As you can see a normal blanket (for demonstration purposes only a pagmina) makes it difficult to pick up his phone but if it had sleeves it would be a cinch.

Our IV chapter joined students from all over the great lakes east region to learn about God's heart for Racial Reconciliation. The first night we celebrated each of our own races and ethnicities, then we discussed areas of brokeness that we have felt towards other races and ethnicites and finally celebrated forgiveness. That though past mistakes have happened and each race has had negative feelings towards people not like them. Through the grace that we have received we can forgive eachother. We also learned that God did not create races so we could just tolerate eachother but because race and ethnicity is a creation of Gods just like us, the world, the weather it should be seen as such and celebrated not just tolerated. (that is the long and short of what I got out of this weekend)
