Sorry--this post is a week late! -Anne
Saturday night was a roller coaster of emotions. We were alternating between laughing and crying! We ran around measuring things with hot dogs. Then, Lacretia, Alexandria, Shaniqua and some other “girl” showed their talents in the Annual Miss Valle Crucis Pageant. There will be no photos attached. We watched clips from “Soul Surfer” that reminded us that we will often make difficult decisions to put God first. Jennifer Adams collected bottle caps to help us make bottle cap crosses to remind us that TODAY GOD IS FIRST. For our closing, we listened to the song, “Who Am I” and watched the “Zilch Prayer”. The Zilch Prayer is amazing. It’s a unique, peaceful way to capture the spirit of prayer. It’s always different, and always special. Eighth Grade spotlight gave each person a chance to receive positive thoughts from their friends. Most of the girls were emotional when thinking about all of the great memories with one another. Then, we passed out our ROCKING PJ pants! Sunday morning we had a wonderful worship service. We sang, played Bible Brainstorm, and took Communion. We celebrated the weekend with Anne’s wonderful slideshow. Each person received pillow cases embroidered with TGIF to remind us to put God first from the rising of the sun until the time our heads hit the pillow. Valle Crucis 2011 was a great bonding time—the best trip EVER! See ya next year!!!
