black out week

youth last night wuz awesomely amazing.  we played this game called black out.  its like hide n seek but the church wuz in darkness and a few people were it.  they had to find the rest.  we each had a glow bracelet and were not to remove it but we could cover it.  the "it" people had glow necklaces and flash lights.  it wuz so fun and freaky too running around the church in the dark.  
after that we had our worship and then our youth pastor spoke.  he wuz speaking on the social network how its such a big thing these days.  he wuz saying the problem with it is that we are not hanging out with our friends or talking to people in person.  many people are just shutting themselves aways from people because of this. so... he gave us a challenge... oh fun stuff.
starting tomorrow we have to avoid all of our social networks for one week.  we also have to minimize our texting. he wants us to meet with people, hang out, witness to people, minister to them, love them.  also he wants us to spend 30 mins a day reading the bible and praying.  we are to journal our days and what God is doing in our lives this week.
then next sunday  which is youth sunday we will be coming forward to give a testimony of our week.
this is going to be so hard for me...i have facebook, blog and 2 twitter accounts and i love to text.  i love going onto the net and doing stuff. 
back in the fall we had a challenge like this, but i wuz grounded off of facebook and i hadnt really gotten into twitter yet and i wuz new to blogging.  oh how things have changed in 10 months.  
well im up for the challenge, i just want to let everyone know that im fine and dandy and will try to see you all in person.

    You know what's funny? You have been on your Facebook and Twitter everyday. You know why I know that? Because I went on my Facebook too. ♥
