If you haven't gotten the pleasure of reading our first encounter with Tommy meet him here, and then read the first part of today's ongoing conversation here.
TOMMY: So yeah, I want to come but my mom said I should ask you if I need to bring anything.
YOUTH PASTOR: Uhh...umm...well we encourage all students to bring a Bible with them for our study time, and you probably want to wear tennis shoes instead of flip flops when we do active games.
TOMMY: I can do that. I have my bible from AWANAs's and I never wear flip flops anyways, may mom says my feat smell so bad that if i want to wear my Birkenstocks I have to wear them with socks and then I have to leave my sneakers out in the garage.
YOUTH PASTOR: Hmm...well that's nothing to be ashamed of.
TOMMY: Well I don't know what my mom is talking about, but really I think if you want to know who has got smelly feet, it's Billy.
YOUTH PASTOR: So who is Billy? Does his family go to church here too?
TOMMY:No, he is my friend from scouts. His family doesn't go to church. I think it's because they live out of town on a farm. But my mom says I should invite him to youth group because it would be good for him.
YOUTH PASTOR: (a little bewildered by previous statement) So...this farm, is it really far away or something?
TOMMY: No, its just like 10 minutes down the road from our house.
YOUTH PASTOR: Then why...you know what, I will just ask your mom later when she drops you off for youth group this week.
TOMMY: (poking through all of the items on your shelf and stuffing more candy in his mouth) So what are you doing here today?
YOUTH PASTOR: Well I am here everyday usually.
TOMMY: Really! Like you work here?
YOUTH PASTOR: Yeah? Why, did you think I did something else?
TOMMY: Well I was up here on Monday with my mom dropping off some stuff for the Women's Group Rummage Sale and I looked around for you and you weren't here, so I thought you must have a real job somewhere.
YOUTH PASTOR: ...
TOMMY: OH, GUESS WHAT! I just got the demo for Modern Warcraft 5: Mercenaries of Madness!
YOUTH PASTOR: Oh, you know what Tommy? I have to finish up my lesson for tomorrow night before a meeting I have to go to here in a little bit. How about you tell me about that another time...
Stay tuned next week for my adventures with Tommy!
