Tuesday night small group

Today I will be blogging about my small group from last summer.  We had such an eclectic group of people in my small group last summer.
My small group leader Ray Pettigrew was and is a very funny man.  He was on Young Life staff before he took over the position as D-focus director last summer.  He can come up with the best and funniest program characters.
My best friend from the summer, Carlyle Aguren was in a band called "Criendleback" with Zack Krueger who was also at Notch Pines that summer.  He played football in high school and was also a Young Life leader at Arkansas.  He ended up becoming one of my best friends from last summer.
Dan "the man" Anderson was from the corn husking state of Nebraska.  He took pride in the husker state.  He was a former wrestler in high school and an avid Nebraska football fan. He also goes to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln.  He is a Wyldlife leader at Nebraska, which is Young Life ministry geared towards junior high kids.
Jason "Marty" Martens, was from Sioux falls, South Dakota which is close to Minnesota area.  He had a Minnesota accent when he first arrived, it wasn't as bad when the summer had ended.  Marty was a joyful person to be around.
Keegan Evans grow a legendary beard this past summer.  He is also an avid hiker and loves building sailboats. Keegan, Carlyle, and Jeremy are all apart of our cabin in which we did the legendary "Little Boys in white T-shirts" skit at skit night last summer.
Jeremy Savage was from Harrisonville,Missouri and was playing soccer at Crowder at the time I first met him.  He was a person that easy to get along with.  I would also consider him to be a very easy going person. That is why a lot of people knew him.
The first cabin night and last cabin night were the best.  The first cabin night we saw the spectacle that was, The Shepard of the Hills."  It was interesting show and yet it was comical.  The last cabin night we bought little shirts and watched motorcyles go around into a ball of fire.  We also drank the drink of champions that night Arnold Palmer.
All in all God did something in all of our lives this past summer.  He used things from the study Discovery to show us and help grow in our walk with him.
