WINTERFEST VIDEO PREMIER!!!
Don’t miss the premier of the WINTERFEST VIDEO this Sunday night! We got a lot of great footage (some you might not even know we got…..) and it’s going to be AWESOME!!!! We’ll start the movie @ 7:00 sharp, so don’t be late!
Also, all you Winterfest-goers (yup, I like to make up words!) will get your very own copy of the DVD so you can go home and show your mommy’s and daddy’s how you are on these trips. Hopefully they’ll let you come with us again….
SEE YOU GUYS SUNDAY!!!
WE’RE THREE DAYS AWAY!!!
Check out this LAST MINUTE CHECKLIST to make sure you have everything you’ll need for the trip!
Make sure you get your PARENT RELEASE FORM in to Barry, because you can’t get on the bus until that is in his hands!
If you have any ?’s just call Barry @ 471-7582!
And, if you’re lucky, maybe you’ll get your very own song written about you by two very tired, very demented youth leaders…..you know, like this one!
Did you know we leave in a WEEK?!!!!!!!
Winterfest is coming up NEXT weekend, February 17-19 and that makes me so happy!!!!
But enough about me, here’s what I need from you:
I need you ALL to be @ Impact on Sunday night so we can go over the details for the trip. Plus, I miss some of your shining, beautiful faces…. 
If you haven’t already, I need you to print this Parent Release Form and bring it filled out on Sunday night. (I CAN’T TAKE YOU ON THE BUS WITHOUT THIS FORM…so, you know, bring it!)
Also, we’ll meet @ the north Burger King (by Gateway Mall) @ 9:00 am on Friday, February 17. The bus is coming from Minot and picking up kids in Garrison before meeting us there to grab breakfast and hit the road. DON’T BE LATE!
IT’S GOING TO BE AN AWESOME TRIP!
Here’s some highlights from last year:

WINTERFEST 2011 VIDEO!!!
Enjoy! I’ll have the DVD’s done next Sunday with all the extra stuff. Looking forward to another fun night filled with amazing worship and God’s presence!
Here’s A Little Song Dedicated To…
Gloria….or is that Jeremy? I don’t know, it all gets so confusing sometimes! But in all seriousness, this gives you a little glimpse into how deliriously crazy youth leaders are during these crazy trips! Btw, my wife might kill me for posting this, so if I’m not in church on Sunday…
A Taste of Worship @ Winterfest!
Here’s a little clip of the worship time on Sunday morning @ Winterfest. We had 3 amazing services during the weekend and God moved in a mighty way! I know that all of our kids felt God during these times and I’ve been praying constantly for you this week that you would live out the things that God showed you this past weekend. Enjoy the clip and remember:

If you want your own DVD copy of the trip, including the full video, bloopers and a slideshow of all the pics bring $5 on Sunday night to get your own. The full video will be posted on Impact’s site, Facebook and Youtube, but the extras will ONLY be on the DVD! All the money from the DVD’s will be used to buy Jeremy a holster for his sword (or should we just buy a swather for Impact?…..) See you guys Sunday night!

HEY THERE KENNY!
Our girls decided to sing a song dedicated to 2EC’s bass player on their elevator ride one night. Why? Who knows, but it’s pretty funny! Check it out below and remember the premiere of the full Winterfest 2011 video is Sunday night @ 6:30 pm!
BE THERE!!!
(btw, this video is also now posted on 2EC’s Facebook page – I knew you girls would want them to see it!)
The Day After…
Ok, so we made it home and traveled through the icy tundra of the western Dakotas and I’m pretty sure I can’t feel my left little toe – ok, that’s not really relevant, but I just thought I’d share a few links while I’m working on the crazy (meaning looooooong) video that we’ll premiere Sunday night! Check back on the site often this week as we might be dropping a few clips to preview the final product. Hope you’re having a great day off and don’t forget that God loves you and He has a plan that nothing you have ever done can change – all you have to do is let Him take over and completely submit yourself to Him!
