Kent and Kayla and Young Life. Eugene, Oregon Portrait Photographer

February 14, 2012

I just got back from one of the best weekends with my Young Life kids.
Who knew that Young Life would be so prominent in my life today. I sure didn't.
But I have been beyond blessed with this ministry, beyond blessed by God.

I was in 8th grade when I met Joben Jarvis (a young life leader at the time). My friends- Adam, Kris, and Mckenzie- and I were at a park (where no one really went) when we met him. We were a bit creeped out, but Adam had the courage to go up and talk to this stranger, and it turned out to be a huge divine appointment in our lives. Joby had told us about Young Life, and since it was the summer before we became freshmen, he of course invited us to go.
9 years later, here I am, a Young Life leader myself.
After I graduated from high school I told myself that I didn't want to be a loser and come back to high school just barely months after I graduated, BUUUUUT..... I came back.
 I'm sure glad I did. It probably was the best thing that could've happened in my life at that moment.
After this last weekend, I feel God is going to do big things in Springfield. Our campaigner kids are going to bring it and club starts next week! Spring is going to be so busy, but oh so worth it.


On another note... it's Valentine's Day!!!
How will you be celebrating this day of Love?? (personally, I think it should be celebrated everyday, with lots of chocolate...)

Speaking of love and since a blog post is more fun with some pretty pictures, I'm excited to share pictures of a cute couple...in love :) Kent and Kayla happily agreed to do a photoshoot with me since I was dying from not taking photos. Thank you, Thank you for being my models!

Enjoy and Happy Day of LOVE!
