I am so excited about where I’m going tomorrow. I’m going back to my home church, San Diego First Assembly of God, where I served as one of the youth pastors in the late 80s and throughout the 90s. The “kids” from that era (who are now grown-ups with their own kids) have organized a “Reunion” for us all.
They are cleverly structuring it like how we used to do youth group – reuniting the worship team, the guy who used to do announcements, some crowdbreakers, and then the three youth pastors from that era (including me) will all share for 5-10 minutes each. Plus lots of time before and after for hanging out and catching up. We’ve been doing a lot of that through Facebook but I can’t wait to do it in person.
Relationships are so important and while I haven’t been the best at keeping in touch with old youth group kids, I keep grinning as I think about tomorrow’s reunion. I’m so proud of these students and we have so so so many shared memories. I imagine I’ll have something to share about the reunion in next week’s blog…
