swimming and campfire

swimming and campfires to me are to of the most relaxing yet satisfying things that i do in my life. some of the best time to connect with people your own age and maybe students or younger friends have happened around a campfire or while being in the pool.
a friend of mine was telling me about one our mutual friends who started a ministry in bar or pub like place out in seattle. Now to me that was the coolest idea to start a ministry in that kind of a setting.
so in the thought of pools and fires, why not start a small group, or just even maybe a group of people getting together and talking about deeper things in a pool or around a campfire?
i think that could be one of the most influential things is some peoples lives. it seems like most of the people that i hang out with around a campfire or in a pool, talk the whole time, why not make that time a growing and a learning time?

Take it where the people are most open to being themselves. Take it where you know you are being what God wants you to be - a connector, a leader, and a hell of great guy!! Glad you are on board at our craziness here at CCV. Looking forward to getting to know you and to watch you grow!
