Xcel 2008-2009 - Middle School 02 Group

Last year we went from 8 to 42 in Xcel, so we'll do our first 02 Small Group split next month. Breaking up really is hard to do, but in this case had to be done. We just left Jeanne's house after an amazing time of planning and prep for the launch/separation. Jeanne also did an incredible teaching on having the "Burden of the Lord" for your kids. She talked with me about it a couple of months ago on a car ride to Athens. It impacted me as much today as it did back then. I truly think the "burden" trumps charisma, leadership genes, lights, dazzle and great events (obviously within reason, burden alone will not help if you're a idiot when it comes to leadership).

It's going to be a great year with our middle school students, home team leaders and MC students. I can hardly wait for the new MC students to roll in next Saturday.
