Dare 2 Share

This past weekend was a blast! I attended the Phoenix Dare 2 Share Conference with about 50 teens from our church. Friday night, we met at the church around 4pm. From the church, we headed downtown for the conference. We got back to the church after 11pm and stayed up past 1am. Around 7:30am, on Saturday, we headed back for the rest of the conference. Saturday was also a very late evening. Needless to say, many of us were dead on our feet.

The conference was jam-packed with great music, wonderful speakers, moving drama's and more. On Saturday afternoon, we went out into Phoenix to gather canned goods for the Phoenix Rescue Mission. With almost 4,000 teens at the conference, we gathered over 14 ton of cans! For the mathematically challenged, we gathered over 28,000 pounds of canned food!

The best part about the weekend is that lives were changed. Some of the teens at our church received Christ as their personal Savior this weekend- Awesome! It was a great time to bond with many of the teens that we now work with.

I am already looking forward to next years conference!
