re-mem-ber: to retain in the memory, keep in the mind, remain aware of
Over 150 guests joined us in "Celebrating Transformation" at the Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak Resort on Saturday evening. It was an evening of reflecting on the marvelous works God has done through the outreach of Aim Right. Lourdes Roman shared how God used the Kids Klub program and simple conversations with interns in the car on the way to or from a program to impact her life. Today, her husband Ro is leading Kids Klub.
Teen Edwin shared how his life has been transformed by the power of the gospel.
Jonathan Roe of the Mission Increase Foundation spoke about the $15,000 matching grant that has been awarded to Aim Right. In addition to the grant from MIF, a supporter of the ministry donated another $5,000, bringing the total match amount to $20,000. We praise God for the generosity of the grant donors, as well as the overwhelming generosity of those in attendance on Saturday evening, who "matched" the match!

The familiar faces of Charles & Marlisa Beachy were in Phoenix again! Charles served as an intern from 2002-2003, and then he and Marlisa served as volunteers extraordinaire for a few months in 2007. Marlisa is a cousin of Joel (current intern). Here are the three atop Camelback Mountain.

We celebrated intern Andrea's birthday. The big box was full of boxes of her favorite __________.
CEREAL!CEREAL!
CEREAL!
Continuing in a series on the armor of God, Caleb spoke about the belt of truth. In this object lesson, he had youth guess if they thought the items in the boxes were "true" to the labels on the outside of the boxes.
