So we got a little silly this week with youth group. We met at the White House, had a little homemade hot chocolate, and prepared to head out into the world of drive-thru restaurants to share a little love of Jesus with those working in the cold. Each student got the chance to hand a worker an ornament, candy cane and Christmas message. The reactions to our gifts were hilarious!
