The Battle Cry

Over this weekend I have gotten an opportunity to help out at the Acquire the Fire event for the Greater New York area.


It was quite an experience. When we first came to the Continental arena - it was empty...




... yet just a few hours later it was FILLED with teenagers and youth ministers. Some of our young people from church attended as well...


The event was called The Battle Cry... for the young generation of people who do not know Christ. In the words of Ron Luce, the founder of Teen Mania Ministries and Acquire the Fire, "With the battle for their hearts and minds more fierce than ever before, this generation is at a crossroads moment that will shape the future of our country."

We worked really hard, my feet were burning by the end of the day, and I barely had any time to sleep... but it was totally worth it.

I went to an Acquire the Fire event in 2001 - it's amazing! They have a great thrust for missions too.
I am glad you had a good time!
