Understandable Message: A senior guy kicked off the teachng part of the weekend, talking about living up to the image his dad had in mind for him. After that intro, a freshman girl shared the first part of the talk, talking about the lies the world would have us believe about ourselves. Then a second girl shared a testimony about her finding her identity in a boyfriend but now finding it from God. Then the senior guy came up and finished off the talk – all of them did excellent, good living illustrations of the principles they were sharing.

Volunteer/Student Involvement: Students once again did everything! From the planning meetings a while back or decorating the building, students did everything.

Element of Fun/Positive Environment: The whole environment was Tesoro HS-themed through and through. Lots of shirts, window paint and streamers. Loved having the Titan mascot roaming the halls! The rap video was excellent, one of the best student videos we’ve ever had.

Music Playlist: You Deserve, Shout Unto God, Give Us Clean Hands, Fire Fall Down

Favorite Moment: Lots of great moments, but I loved it when Mckensie shared part of the talk – I’ve seen her grow so much this year and it was great to see her be so bold to take the stage.
