Our high school ministry, Ignite, hosted our first outreach event on Friday night. An art show with music and plenty of neon colors. Kids followed the music and came in off the streets. Where one might only find drugs, drinking, and strip clubs on a Friday night, Surfing the Nations was a positive environment for these kids.
Eukarezt was there. A local christian artist, displayed his talents and inspired the kids with his graffiti-art.
I love event planning. Putting on art shows or music shows is a passion I have. I love organizing things like this. Especially when the event is catered to kids as cool as them. Being able to have fun in a alcohol/drug free environment. Having fun without caring what others think of you. Showing others that you can be cool and have fun without alcohol or drugs. What a way to live. What a way to reach out to the younger generations.
Keep your eyes and ears peeled for future events. I have a feeling that this won't be the last and our Wahiawa bar will be the place to be on a Friday night or Saturday night on this side of the island. Just a thought.
