Aaron Mondok Speaks His Mind....

sup peeps,
Out of much thought and consideration, I felt an extreme urge to inform everyone about the Christmas party coming up.
Sunday December 11th is when this magical day, which we will indulge ourselves in the marvelous world of artificial snow, will take place. Not only that, but we will also be having a gift exchange.

If the above information doesn't intrigue you deeply, well you either have serious issues or you need some inspiration.
let me tell you about last year. No nevermind. The fun was beyond your wildest imaginations. So I think I'll only tell you what is possible for our human minds to comprehend.
Okay here it goes.

it was a somewhat cold day for Florida. The smell of Christmas pine left a fine tickle in my nose. I was overwhelmed with Christmas cheer do to the amazing gift I had received from the exciting gift exchange. As all these preliminary fancies were running through my senses, the next thing I knew there was an ice cold ball of sharp icy pain piercing my back flesh. Yes my friends, this sharp pain was a icy bladey ice ball. Not snow ball. Ice ball. When one tries to make fake snow in Florida, the shredded ice melts slightly and then when the ice particles come in contact with the other is particles they re-freeze into blade like layers of ice, therefore when the ice is rolled into "snow balls" they are more like cold blade balls. Well, imagine a blade ball being chucked at you as hard as an average highschool guy can through. It probably wouldn't have hurt so bad if I hadn't had my shirt off. But that's what me and the rest of my fellow revolutionists did during this nipple numbing snowball fight.

In conclusion if you like extreme crazy madness, snow, and the possible chance of catching a glimpse of me with my shirt off, then come to the December 11th crazy Christmas party.

I heard it was going to be better this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Well its that time of year again, Turkey Day! Its when we reflect on all of the things that God has done in our lives. Take time to think about those thinks which God has blessed you and be thankful! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

From Julia Goolia

Many of us have been kicked out of our comfort zones since Wilma hit us on the 24th - without electricity, I became pretty frustrated about the lack of "necessities" such as telephone service, quick and easy access to gas and internet, a cold refridgerator (and a hot shower), and indoor light after 7:30 PM.
But living without power for just 4 days forced me to appreciate some of the blessings that I take advantage of on a regular day. I never have enjoyed the natural sunlight in the morning as much as I did in the past week, and the stars have never been clearer at night without the subduction of artificial lighting all around me. The absence of distractions and access to instant entertainment allowed me to focus on Jesus and to grow spiritually. When I recollect my thoughts and experiences of the hurricane, I remember the satisfaction of feeling closer to God as I read Scripture and felt the presence of the Holy Spirit in my candle-lit house, and the anticipation of waking up to natural light all around me, eluminating my whole house without flashlights and candles. Overall, I believe that the Lord has taught me through this experience to set my mind on things above, not on earthly things (Col. 3:2) and I hope that you too can embrace what has happened as a true blessing from God!
