D-focus skit night

Today is the anniversary of the D-focus skit night. That day will live on infamy of all the participants from last year.
My cabin, cabin four, performed the Little Boys in White T-shirts skit which changed Notch  Pines forever.
Andrew Clark punched a hole in the wall from our jumping up and down.  We broke a chair as Carlyle sat on Dan Anderson.  There were a lot of blood and tears shed that night as well.  In the opening scene, I flew by as I chopped trees down.
I will always have that night etched it my mind.  The reason is because of the crazy destruction we caused and how hyped up we were for that night.  We drank so many energy drinks that night. When it was finally time to perform the skit, the craziness just erupted inside of us and through us.  It was at that time the most epic D-focus skit had finally come to fruition.
Ann Pinkerton, the D-focus Coordinator, said afterwards the skit was banned from D-focus.  Some people laughed about that night while others were scared of the havoc that we caused during that fateful night.  It all felt like a blur after the events had transpired earlier that night.
I think that night as helped as bond together as cabin.  It was early in the summer and we were just starting to get to know each other.  It would have been around the fourth week into 10 weeks we would be developing friendships together.  It truly was a great time living together as a community experiencing life together with that cabin.  We learned about each other's tendencies and our likes and dislikes in those 10 weeks last summer.
I believe that Jesus brought us together to have that community last summer and perform that legendary skit.  He also used that community to help us grow and encourage us during those 10 weeks of discipleship.
Living in community is one of the things God uses to grow us in him.  He brought us together that summer for a truly great time of growth in him.  These people I will know my entire life and for that I am eternally grateful.
In closing, I say always pursue community because the growth you will experience is immeasurable.  Cherish those times where you are living together in community.
