L.I.F.E.
So we're finally here! It's been 6 months in the making...
We have a new night, a new format, a new room... and a new name!
Congrats to Ricky C for dropping the name LIFE on the last post. I think it fits us perfectly. LIFE is what we want to be about, and we want that room to always be full of life. When we worship, when we pray, when we learn... whatever we do we want it to be full of life. I'm also captivated by Jesus' words in John 10:10 when he says, 'I have come that you may have life, and have it to the full". That's the kid of life I want with Jesus-- full, abundant, overflowing! I want to see all of us embrace this epic adventure with Jesus that He offers. So we'll call the Tuesday night Youth Group LIFE.
Now what I'd love do is make LIFE stand for something. It ought to reflect who we are and what we're about. So far all I got is Living Intentionally For Eternity. That's pretty cool, but do you have any better ideas? It can be serious ideas or just ridiculous thoughts that you know we won't use but are so funny you just had to get them out of your head! Drop your ideas here!
Also, for JHers, we need to rename the Half-Way house. If you come up with the most awesome name, we'll buy you food or some YG paraphernalia. Think out of the box, but it needs to have something to do with the concept of LIFE!

Randomly off the very top of my head:
- Life Isn't For Exorcism
- Latin Ideology For Everyone!
- Lactose Intolerant Freethinking Entities

LIVING IN FULLNESS EVERYDAY!!!!
I really think that one is brilliant because it's pretty much what the verse says, that Jesus came so we could "have life, and have it to the fullest."
OR... Living It Fully Everyday
Hey, do you have any ideas for The Halfway House.
We came up with The Crap House, but Emily wont let us call it that :/
I came up with The H.A.P.P.Y house"
Hahaha :)

Y OU ! It's stupid, but whateverrr :P
I kinds of like "the crap house", except it doesn't look like crap anymore... but the logo would be really cool! It would look good on t-shirts!
A good reminder!
JHERS: IT'S TIME TO RENAME THE HALF-WAY HOUSE, ANY IDEAS?
I can't believe all my brilliance went completely unnoticed.
Says Chloe:
How 'bout just The House or The Clubhouse?
Living in Faith Eternally

or

Cool, cool! Lots of good ideas... and don't worry Matt your "brilliance" is always noticed!
So last Tuesday the idea came that we could spell it LYPH, or LIPH... what acronym could we get out of that?
Love
Your
People,
Holmes!
OOH! OOH! Living in Faith EXTERNALLY.
LYPH:
Let's Yodel Praise Hymns
Like You Practice Hindu
Loving Yet Practical Humans
If those ain't golden, I don't know what is.
(To be honest, I think we should just let LIFE be LIFE. It can stand for whatever you want! Not how we would like people to approach a relationship with Christ, but still fun. Right?)
Life
Is
For
Everyone
lompoc
is
frightfully
extremely boring.
So far I think Matt has a point about just letting it be LIFE... and Melinka's acronym fits that idea LifeIsForEveryone... should we go with that?
Sounds good to me.
Of course, now I like spelling it "LYPH" better... or is that dumb?
When I see that I think "liff" but thats me.
Yeahh I like LYPH better too.

I like "LYPH" but what does it stand for?

But I do like
Life
Is
For
Everyone too.....

Mark, way to go with the suggestions!
I kinda like LIFE House... fits the theme and it's simple!
Hey folks!
1 more week and we'll pick the name!
I thought of a new name for the halfway house...its kinda cheesy but I liked it
LIFE House
So I feel silly...I posted my house name and then went back to blog to see if it worked and as I was reading other entries I noticed that someone else already submitted my idea...I guess great mind think alike!!!
Hahahaha P.H.A.T. house just sounds so cool :) but I guess I don't have a say in that decision...
For the Half-Way House:
The Institution
The Quarantine
The Containment Facility
Shame on you Matt... we can't use names that are already used to describe your bedroom!
So the plane is beginning to land, and here's where I'm settling:
Tuesday night is called LIFE.
"Living It Full Everyday" is the primary acronym, but we'll let it be whatever we want at different time (ie Living Injury Free Everyday, Lunch is Freaking Expensive,Lactose Intolerant Freethinking Entities, etc.)
The youth room will be known as "The Living Room"
The house will be known as "Life House"
What'cha think?
soooooounds good to me!
NOOOOOO!
I don't think I'll be able to go to the Office party becuase I'm going to a concert at the SB Bowl on the same day. ARGH
No, Kyle! The Raconteurs aren't worth it! Just think of the unparalleled suspense and drama you'll be missing out on! And Dwight! For Pete's sake, what would he say? Tsk tsk tsk...
And FYI, Chris. My room has already been dubbed The Pig Sty.
hey official "Andy" of the group here.
Can I Take Kyle's place?
or should I randomly show up with the "same book you guys are reading?"
wow!!
who came up with that name??
i thought mine were awsome!!
but thats ok :)
Just make sure my poppa ain't there. It's enough he has to show up on Tuesdays...
Ok kidds,
So the official standing would be:
Name of Tuesday nights is LIFE= Ricky Cummings
Name of House as LIFE House=
Mark Vanostrand.
So I'll get each of you guys something awesome! Talk to me on Tuesday.
The next step: painting the Living Room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
