Please pray for the almost 1800 people assembling next Monday-Friday at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, CO. The 2009 Free Lutheran Youth (FLY) Convention may be the largest event in AFLC history, and we're looking forward to watching God save souls and equip believers next week.

I can't separate my spiritual walk from FLY Conventions. It's not that I depend on an every-other year pick me up- a convention high to offset roller-coaster lows. It's just that God has done a lot of work in my life through these times together.

I was saved there in 1991. I was called to Bible School -and eventually- full time ministry there in 1995. I learned non-basketball leadership as I served on the planning committee in 1997-2001. And I was blessed to organize and train counselors for the 2003-2007 conventions. 

Every year it's a highlight, anticipating a great week of ministry to come, then sitting back in exhausted reflection on a great week of ministry past.

Precious, eternal human souls are always a good investment. So please pray for us. You can find more here, and once you're firmly planted, 

Go serve your King,

Psalm 1:1-6- Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
