I (Abram) am writing from the plane, thousands of miles above what I think is Arizona. I’m on my way to California for Saddleback Church’s Purpose Driven Youth Ministry Student Leadership Conference, held this week from July 10 to July 14, 2007.
Having prayed for this trip and continuing to do so, the next thing to do is to say thank you to everyone who made it possible for our High School students to attend this life-changing conference. Many thanks to those who participated in our Dinner and Silent Auction, paid our students for labor, or gave a donation to help us get here! I’ve been very encouraged with how supportive the entire Truro parish has been of our Youth! Thank you!
Beginning with this post we are attempting to enlist a technology some of you may be familiar with: the Weblog, or blog for short. A blog is a live journal kept on the Internet for others to read. We plan on updating as often as possible—rumor has it that Saddleback’s entire campus is wireless. In fact, if the rooms used for the conference are wireless as well, we will even be able to “live blog”, or blog the conference as it is unfolding and as we are learning in real time. Mine will not be the only voice you hear on this conference this week. This will be a joint effort, and our student leaders will be joining me in the effort, so you’ll be able to hear from them, as well. Check back often!
And, no, this entry wasn’t technically a live blog entry, as the plan we are on is not wireless. But give Jet Blue a few more years and I suspect it will be….
Pax,
Abram

Hi Abram. Thank you so much for this blog. It really helps get a picture of your trip. I never blogged. Obviously a parent writing this...we are the ones leaving all the anonymous comments. God bless you.
