Last weekend I took our awesome youth group girls to the Revolve Tour! It's a Christian conference for teenage girls with amazing concerts, speakers, drama - super fun! We went to the conference in Hartford, CT and there were over 4,000 teenage girls present - amazing!
One of my favorite parts of the retreat was my New York girls' reactions to the city of Hartford, CT. Here are my three favorite quotes:
"Where are all the people? Isn't this supposed to be a city?"
"This city is sooo much cleaner than New York!"
"I just saw a car wait for a person! People do that?!?"
"Where are all the people? Isn't this supposed to be a city?"

At the conference the girls were challenged to consider sponsoring a World Vision child. For just $35 a month we can provide a child with food, clean water, clothing, medical care, and education - that's just amazing! We chose three Malian children to sponsor as a youth group! Each teen just needs to bring $1 a week to youth group and we can care for three Malian children - that rocks my socks off! :)
By the way, our youth group raised almost $6,000 through 30 Hour Famine last month! Teenagers can change the world!
