Luke: I hope you have a good time and be careful. Have you seen the biggest bullfrog in Africa? It has large teeth on the bottom jaw.
Caleb: Have fun & listen for His voice.
Rob: Katie, it is always encouraging to me as a youth leader to see teens like yourself be obedient when the Lord calls you into service. Continue to walk in his steps!
