It's Christmas time in the City


Recognize the guys in the picture?

One is our own Chuck Parsons and the other is Ruppert G. owner of the Hello Deli and frequent contributor to the David Letterman Show.

This was just one of the sights and stories we have from our trip to NYC this past weekend. 29 of us went and we had a great time.

From feeding the flying rats (also known as pigeons) near Ground Zero to hangin out at Times Square and not buying $3 pretzels or $4 sodas to
touring St Patrick's Cathedral and seeing "The Tree" at Rockefeller Center, it was another chance to make memories and expand horizons for many of our teens.

I love New York and that's not just repeating the famous ad campaign. It's where I grew up, it's where most of my family lives and it's a great place to eat a dozen or so White Castle Burgers, some Chicken rings, egg rolls and some fish nibblers (if you so desire, we didn't).

I love Delaware too. It's where God has called me to work alongside some incredible people to impact our world with the Love of Christ. Unlike Ruppert, most of them may never be famous or pseudo-famous, but they are the ones who make PowerLine Youth Ministries tick and without whom we could not accomplish all that we do.

So thanks to all the Youth Leaders, parents and students who give of their time, talents and so much more.
