Encounterfest 07 continued

When people said that Encounterfest is something for you need to experience I didn't believe until I am writing my entries. It is hard to describe my experience. It was my first time going and you could say it changed me... for the better....

It was interesting to hear about Zach Hunter's cause. End Slavery Now. When 15 year-old Zach Hunter learned that millions of people around the world are slaves, he knew he had to do something. He started a fundraising campaign called "Loose Change to Loosen Chains" and collected nearly $10, 000. The funds were donated to the International Justice Mission to rescue victims of slavery and other forms of oppression. Today, his campaign is a national ministry. by Jeremy V. Jones.

It is amazing to hear younger generations and being passionate about a cause.

This whole Encounterfest has had me thinking that just because your young doesn't limit what you can do. The mentality I had was someday when I have a job, degree and money I can do something for God. Now that I have achieved completing my degree, have a job and have regular income, I need to step up and do something even if it is small steps... As humble beginnings turn to big things...

Maybe because I was affected by the craziness of Encounterfest but I had the courage to ask for a photo with Zach and Judah. At first I got really nervous asking Zach but then I thought heck, I am going to ask what do I have to lose? With Judah it was easier, I went up to him and introduce myself and Melany hehehe and asked him if we can have a picture with him. He is soooo nice and said nice to meet you. That night I couldn't go to sleep and I was floating on cloud 9 hehehe. I just need to wait for Melany to share the pictures so I can show you the evidence =P What a good note to end an awesome weekend!
