awesome weekend

I had such an awesome weekend. I was really bummed at first about not being able to go down to SWU for homecomming...but man...God is just so awesome. Saturday I spent the entire day with Betsy and Patrick. We went to RO's for lunch and then to the mall to but some things for Betsy's gypsy costume. She looked too cute. After that we headed to Catawba Heights to set up for the coffee house later that evening. Then everyone got dressed up in our costumes. ( I was Daisy Duke~without the short shorts, Betsy was a gypsy, Lauren was a beauty queen, Amanda was Frenchie, Brian was Danny, Matt was an old man and Rey was his wife) We had an excellent time of worship and awesome food. Variation 180 and Blaze were the two bands that led and they rocked. After that everyone (minus pat and betsy) went to IHOP to eat more food. I rode with Lauren and Zach and we had so much fun together just talking and laughing. There ended up being like 30 of us in IHOP.

Sunday I spent most of the day with my mom. After she went to work Betsy and Patrick came over and then we all headed out to a play he was in at his church. It's amazing to see what God has done in his life. I went to high school with him and if anyone would have told me that we would be best friends right now I would have laughed. He was kind of a jerk, he did drugs and partied all the time. A few months ago God completely changed his life and he hasn't touched drugs or alcohol since then. The play he was in was called Rapture and it was awesome. Three of the girls that went with us aren't saved, but hopefully the play touched them. After the play, Pat set it up for one of our friends to talk to one of the pastors at the church (who ironically played satan in the play) I don't know what he said to her or how he said it, but something in their conversation spoke to her. She knows now that she needs to make a decision, she just needs to be ready to make it. I don't know what she's holding on to that's keeping her from making the decision, but just pray that she gives it up to God.

For now I need to get some studying donw before my next class.
