Phoenix 2011

We took our youth group on a trip to Phoenix, AZ for Fine Arts Festival/General Council of the Assemblies of God.  We had two kids preforming, one was singing, and the other did a short sermon.
There was about 10 of us total. The trip was so much fun.  

It took us 17 hours to get there.  We made it a two day trip.  Once we got over into New Mexico and Arizona, some of the scenery was beautiful!

Once we crossed over the New Mexico state line, traffic can to a stand still because of a truck that caught on fire.  We were stuck there for over an hour.  We were all standing in front of the van singing.  It was so much fun.  We made the best of a crazy situation.

Once we got there we had services to go to. This is a picture of the last night service. It was fabulous.  It was a combines service of Fine Arts and General Council. They also award the fine arts participants who one in their categories.

We had fun packed week.  Since we were close, we decided to go the Grand Canyon.  It was a chance of a life time.  I have never seen anything so magnificent and gorgeous.  All of these pictures are phone pictures.  I forgot my camera.  I hope to take the boys back one day.

We made the trip back in one day!  It was tough and long trip.  We were glad to get home once we got there.
