Well... I'll continue from where I left off, as far as I remember...
This year's DNow was a good learning experience for me and most of the other boys. We did a lot of things that really encouraged me to be a better Christian and God showed me that I don't have to hear an audible voice in my head to hear and know He's talking to me, it could just be a gut feeling, He could, like this weekend, make me sick so that I concentrate on Him more, sounds funny but it's true, God made me sick with allergies so that I paid attention more... in all retrospect, God used flowers to bring me to a place I would hear Him.
We did have one huge and pleasant surprise... Cody Simmons, after the weekend was over and during invitation at the end of church, walked up and accepted Christ. I'm so proud of him for knowing and wanting to get his life right with God. I would ask everyone keep him in their prayers that God would show him and that he would be receptive to God!
We were all extremely sore and exhausted after all was said and done, after all of the wrestling and marshmallow (shot) gun shooting, (no seriously, we put like 22 marshmallows in this thing and George used the air mattress air pump to shoot these things, it got like a 10 foot spread!). In all, I can't begin to describe the passion, the excitement, the glory, the Presence of God, the fun and the pure joy of this weekend... the only way I could is to invite you to next years... so let me encourage you to open your home to some crazy youth, to see lives changed, to see friendships formed, to see God move through the hearts of young people. and if you're a youth, let me encourage you to join next year's D-Now, you won't forget nor regret it!!!!
In Christ,
Travis

It was indeed awesome. I added you on AIM as well, but I'm never on, so that may not end up a means of conversation.
Can't wait 'til next year! I'm hardcore ready to come back on sunday even!
Keep me updated on what you texted me about today.
Dude, it WAS awesome! Especially considering that I almost didn't do it at all... I'm glad I did though...
