January Jumpstart 2006

I went to JJ 06, and it has now ended. It’s the beginning of Mark Study with InterVarsity Trojan Christian Fellowship. I’m getting tired now, and I need to sleep before 2am, so I’ll have to write more about it later. But for now, I’ll say it was awesome and I have a lot of…Continue Reading…

But imagine all the lost opportunities, people,…Continue Reading…
