Who would have thought those words could ever bring me so much joy?  But it’s true…I couldn’t be more excited for what God is going to do this weekend as students from all over DC (and one of you from Texas A&M!) converge at the Concord Retreat Center in West Virginia.  I know we’re going to have a great time; it’s impossible to put that many amazing people in one place and not have fun!  But I’m also praying you come with a sense of expectation for how God can use this weekend in your life.  Maybe you need to rekindle your passion for the Gospel.  Maybe you’re looking for something bigger to live for than just your own small self interests.  Maybe you feel a longing for biblical community.  Or maybe you need a fresh start in your walk with Christ where you get things refocused.  God is big enough to do all of that and more this weekend.  So, come excited.  Come ready.  Come anticipating.

See you in West Virginia!
