New Orleans in December, yes please!

Last weekend my and 2,000 other Youth Ministers headed down to New Orleans to learn more, laugh a lot, drink a little, pray together and grow in our mission of bring the young Catholic Church closer to Christ.

Such an amazing time. I have a few highlights...

• Being in 70 degree weather while Iowa was having a blizzard
• Seeing my Mississippi (some of them) family and enjoyed a good time
• The conference was truly amazing from workshops, music, key notes and prayer
• Growing closer to my Iowa Youth Minister friends and seeing some old friend (Katie it rocked to see you!)
• Seeing and spending time with Miller, Andrew and Ryan Hoffmann
• Giving Ryan his 30th Birthday gift.
• THE FOOD and DRINKS! OMG soooo good!

I was unsure if I would make it home on Sunday like I planed however God is good and provided me a flight home and bed's for those friends that had to stay an extra day. I have a new energy and ready to go on Christmas vacation!
