ARC 2013

This past weekend we had the privilege of attending ARC , the ArkLaMiss Regional Leadership Celebration in Monroe, LA. We brought a busload and a few extra cars of staff, committee, and volunteer leaders to join 400 other Young Lifers from Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi.

It was a weekend to celebrate and worship; to be encouraged. It was a weekend to be challenged; to walk away different than the way we came (Ezekiel 46:9). We reunited with old friends. We made new friends. We even got to visit Duck Commander!

The semester is halfway over. It’s easy to feel burnt out and to start dragging our feet. The Lord is always gracious in giving us rejuvenation just when we need it. We were able to walk away from this weekend with full, joyful, and excited hearts.

Some tweets over the weekend from leaders of the ArkLaMiss Region:

“So thankful for this weekend at @YLARC2013 Definitely the spiritual rejuvenation I needed! And confirmation that I’m doing the right thing!”

“So blessed this weekend. Thanks to everyone @YLARC2013 for your hard work…”

“Pretty much the best weekend ever.”

“Always super impressed by these staff and volunteers.”

“Young Life and Duck Dynasty! What else could a girl want?!”

We also made a Harlem Shake video while on the party bus down to Monroe!
