Sunday evening I was able to get together with the 11th and 12th grade girls. We all met at Panera Bread to spend some time together just us and I was able to share with them how Chris and I came to the decision to leave. We had a fun night share stories and laughing at our inside jokes. I am so thankful for these girls and all that they have brought to my life.
Last night we had are finally farewell with the all of the youth. Our youth pastor,Rich, asked Chris if he would like to speak one last time to the youth. Chris was all for that and had a great message about prayer. I thought was really appropriate since we have had so much prayer lately over this move. :) At the end Rich had us come up on stage and let the kids share their favorite story about us. Words really can't express what it meant to hear those stories, laugh at some of the jokes we have shared and re-live all the things we have had a chance to do. One thing we found out last night that I wasn't even aware was that on 3/9/08 Chris and I visited Arrow Heights for the very first time and on 3/9/11 that was our very last night at Arrow Heights. Exactly 3 years, when I heard this it gave me chill bumps. It is amazing to think that God has such specific time lines for our life. He knew that we would have exactly 3 years at Arrow Heights and then our time would be over and He would ask us to move on to our next place. Crazy!
