two studs i know

for those of you who support me financially or are just curious, i wanted to show you a copy of a facebook message i just sent out to some friends i work with. one of the privileges of my life is that i have time to talk with guys like jake and pete, who are volunteer leaders out there using their free time to make a difference. as a gen ignite/rush missionary, part of my job is to encourage (and be inspired by) other volunteer leaders.
here's the message i sent out:

1. was talking with jake today. he was on his way to a high school to surprise one of the guys in his ignite group and have lunch with him. can you imagine the impact it would have on you as a teenager if a college student showed up at your school to eat lunch with you? --showed up on SURPRISE? not only is that freaking awesome, now you look cool in front of all the girls cuz you hang out with college dudes.

2. last week pete talked with a guy from his ignite group he has never met. found out he liked football. so monday in between 2 tests and homework, pete drives out to the boondocks to toss the football around with this kid. to me, thatd be like if a crossfit trainer asked if he could come over and show me how to do handstand tricks on the rings. umm....yes please?!

pete and jake = studs.
