JAM (Day 146)

I didn’t go to church today because I promised I would go to JAM tonight. JAM is my youth group at my old church that I used to go to. JAM stands for Jesus and Me. I don’t know who came up with the title and I think it’s kind of babyish now. I mean when I was younger I thought it was really clever but now we don’t even say Jesus and me. We all call it Jam. It is always fun because we get there at 6:30 every Sunday night and play a game at 7 and then at 7:45 we get a snack and then have bible study until 8:30 when we leave. And now we have like 20 kids in the group. We gained a lot when the ICY-G (Immigrant Children’s Youth Group) came. All of them are from Vietnam and they speak Vietnamese which is really cool because they teach us a lot about their culture. My friend Nhi’s parents are Buddhist but she is Christian. It took a lot of convincing for her to come to Jam but now she does and it is really cool to be able to meet someone that has lived in another country.
