So my dad came up with an idea.
He is on the rock board. if you're not from around here, The Rock is a place where kids can just go to hang out, play games, be together. I think every kid in town has been there at least once. The owners are incredible christian people. And the whole thing is non-profit.
but anyways last september, my parents were at the rock banquet. Its an anual thing, and they were sitting with a couple from my church, rick and patty. But my dad just said, its sad that they have to kick the kids out at 5pm, i want to start a program were kids and their families can stay until like 9, and i want them to have a hot meal to eat for free. or something like that. and patty went all off and agreed and they talked to the owners, which totally agreed.
its on the last friday of every month. last week they anounced their plan to church, pretty much everybody is involved. I was sitting with all the teenagers and we decided that we would do something. My dad wanted the youth group to be really involved, robin the owner told dad and patty and my mom, that the closer to the kids ages that you are the more they relate to you and the more you can help them.
Later at home, i told dad that the girls wanted to be involved. he said, "see you don't need to go away to do masters commision you can do it right here! haha"
we decided that we would do a human video, and so on wednesday i had a sleepover and all the girls came over and we planned one. It is going to be so cool. We worked really hard to relate it to the rock kids and i'm so excited. i planned to say what song we were going to do it to, but i decided not to because it should be a surprise, the girls even refuse to tell kyle what we're doing cause we want to do something with out his advice.
It will be so cool. i hope everything turns out fantastic and we can maybe change a life. :)
