Friday wrapped up an incredible week at CIY Summer Conference at Chapman University.
Friday morning, Doug Aldridge's sermon was right on. One of the quotes/examples he used was from the life of Jim Elliot. There was a prayer that Jim Elliot prayed, which was to not be a mile marker on the road of other people's lives, but to be a fork in the road where people have to make a choice after encountering him.
The dodgeball tournament was the first dodgeball tournament played on field turf. The tennis courts were being used, so everyone played in the end zone of the football field. The tournament was almost won by the same group of guys who won the basketball tournament. The crazy thing about that is they are from a smaller church (their group size was 27) and almost beat all the team from CCV, which brought 400. My favorite team name was "B&E" which stood for absolutely nothing. You ask them what it means and they rattle off 6 different names (ie. bacon and eggs, breaking and entering).
Like I have said before, this was one of the most stress-free weeks I have been apart of the last 6 years at CIY, with only one minor discipline issue involving play dough and pool table. But even that I don't think was any CIY kids. To top off the week, the semi-truck door was shut at 11.25pm, and nothing but praise for Matt Foreman for leading the team and getting it done.

Crap on the pool table: not us.
B&E stands for: I think it's the phrase a ton of guys have been throwing around here at CCV in the context of checking out girls: bounce those eyes.
South region girls "commando shirts": I found out that they weren't intended to be a sexual innuendo, but how could they not have caught that before they made them?
Good week of conference man! Your team did a great job... the programming was excellent, as usual, and things ran smoothly. Talk to you soon.
