Wow.. Outstanding! Congrats man... way jealous... take lots of great pics. This way if you ever teach a New Testament Class in Seminary you don't have to really teach anything, rather you can just show the pictures... oh wait, I think I know someone who already does that

Hey Bodie, don't worry about the Youth Deprtment while you are gone, as Agusto and I have it all figured out:
*Wednesday night plans:
Basics to Base Jumping: We will be jumping of the roof of the church onto inflated trash bags (we decided to use Hefty bags for safety reasons)
In the spirit of the Olympics we will also be practicing the Luge: we will be strapping the youth on skateboards and sending them down the storm drains up in Anaheim Hills. This experience will definately draw them closer to their Lord.

*Sunday Mornings plans:
Military tactics: We will be having a paintball squrmish in the church parking lot. We have decided on utilizing Kenny's Willy's as one home base and Pastor Tom's Tahoe as the other. Of course Agusto and I are responsible, so we got paintball colors which blend nicley with their vehicles.
Community Service:
Community car wash for donations. Since Agusto and I are into helping as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time, we decided to utilize the fire hydrant, below the church near the entrance to Chapman. We will hook up a distributer and several hoses manned by the youth and hose down the cars as they crest the hill. We will then have several youth at the next light accepting donations for the car wash. Agusto thinks this can be a big money maker for our department.

So, you just sit back and relax, nowing all is well!! We want you to be at total peace for this year of seminary, crammed into several days.

The entire Youth Department will be praying for your safety.

***DISCLAIMER***
YOUTH IN THE YOUTH DEPARTMENT: WE WILL NOT BE DOING ANYTHING LIKE THIS IN THE QUIRK'S ABSENSE. ADDITIONALLY NONE OF THESE EVENTS ARE SUPPORTED BY HERITAGAE CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP, ITS YOUTH DEPARTMENT. DO NOT ATTEMPT ANY OF THE EVENTS ABOVE. THANK YOU.

Lets just re - decorate his office!!
