1st uhxa meeting of 08-09

our first meeting was so much fun! our living room was packed out with students. some students we've seen all summer long, some we haven't seen since school ended in may, and some we'd never even met before. one of the students, kevin, shared a little of what's been on his heart lately then, we spent time in worship to the LORD. it was such a sweet time together and we are all excited about what the LORD has in store for us this year!
here are a few photos from the first meeting:

everybody was munching on yummy chips and queso and cookies and just catching up.

some of us played an exciting game of catch phrase while some of the guys went to play football in the mud.
