So I surfed around a bit to see what was new. Reviews for Spider-Man 4 were mostly positive. I can't wait to see it.
Then I went here to our blog. It was still here, can you believe that? It was changed up a little, but still the same ol' blog. That's where I found the following post, which I copied and pasted on here for all of you to read.
M-Fuge: Year 4
Posted by AJ
Hey everybody. What an awesome year this was. 56 people saved through our group alone. Great job to the 36 members who were able to go this year. As co-president of your student leadership team, I am very proud. Mr. and Mrs. Craton are proud too, as are Gary and Jovanna. And when Jason and Marissa heard, they were very excited (if they could have gotten off the set of their new film, they would've been there as well).
Seems like just yesterday when y'all were leaving for the first time, and I wasn't going with you 'cause I wasn't as involved in this youth group as I am now. I remember seeing the van pass my house and wondering if I'd ever really be a part of the youth group. Sure, I loved playing softball with you guys and all that, but when it came to the important things, I really didn't have a clue. To be honest, I don't think any of us did.
Then a week later, the group returned completely changed. They were excited about something new. Suddenly, every Wednesday was filled with excitement and enthusiasm about Christ, and the whole group started taking everything seriously (in a good way, I mean). Next thing I know, they're talking to me about learning to take Christ seriously myself. So I did, and then I started inviting more of my friends and trying to get them to do the same. Before long, we had the most amazing youth group in town.
I'll never forget that group, particularly the class of '08 - Ryan, JD, Shaun...all those guys. They made me who I am today. They became leaders, then they passed it on to little kiddos like me.
Well, that's all I have to say for now. I'd post some pics from the trip, but Blogger is acting up again. It's 2010 and Blogger still stinks! Can you believe that?

What an awesome thing it would be to have this come true! I know it is what I hope and pray for. It can be done! One of the verses I'm currently trying to mes-mer-ize is... Um... (looks it up) Ahh, yes Psalm 9:10
Those who know your name will put their trust in you,
for you, Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek you
In addition to Mathew 7:7-11:
7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
9 "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?
11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
God doesn't leave those who seek Him to just pitter about, trying to get closer and not being able to. He will not abandon us. Ask! Seek! Knock!
By the way, you left out the web address to the site you went to that can peek into the future. I did a little yahoo search and found it though, so don't worry about adding it ;) .

Those clever Japanese! Always thinking up something new.
It probably mentioned my highly-syndicated wild-life show right?
Ooooh I hope that's the kind of thing that will be written in the future! :)
But something about it confused me, are you still going to M-Fuge with us Jason? :O
Yeah, I'm going...this year.
