Congratulations to Tammy, Robert, and Sandra - our inaugural winner, runner-up and 3rd place finisher in the TD Tennis Tournament!  On a beautiful day, 9 TD tennis players played for nearly three hours in an evenly matched tournament.  At the end, Tammy prevailed with a record of 16-9, while Robert was 15-10, and Sandra was 13-12.  It was a great day of great tennis!  We'll definitely do it again! Some photos have been added to the Multimedia Section.

We had a blast at the TD Olympics as the three teams of Counselors, Freshmen, and Senior/Frosh/Soph competed in a variety of athletic events of skill, speed, strength, and accuracy.  In the end, the counselors prevailed in a close contest with a score of 96, while the other two teams tied with 90.  Above all, it was fun ... and tiring!  

Kathy and Jenny both did an INCREDIBLE (!!!) job in proclaiming God's truth at TD's inaugural participation in the CA So. Baptist State Youth Speakers Tournament in Fresno ... just fantastic.  And wouldn't you know it, Kathy won 1st Place!!! 

As the state champion, Kathy will give her speech before thousands of people at the CSBC's annual youth conference, Tsunami, in December.  You'll get to hear their speeches at the TD Year-End Banquet on June 24. Some photos have been added to the Multimedia Section.

Thanks to all who worked diligently, prepared faithfully, and performed beautifully at Grill-a-Christian.  With over 100 people in attendance, we had a perfect blend of teaching, Q & A, music, and drama ... and don't forget the food!  Feedback has been encouraging as many were encouraged and edified in pro-life truth, thanks to Steve Wagner.  Look for the video in the near future, and review it so you can make a difference too.  

After defeating the TD'ers in Whiffle Ball I, the counselors felt sorry for their students in Whiffle Ball II, so they tried to build up their self-esteem by letting the TD'ers finally feel what victory tastes like.  The score was 11-2, and, boy, did the TD'ers enjoy that!  Well, truthfully, the TD'ers jumped on the counselors early and never let up, playing hard nosed defense the rest of the way.  We had lots of fun and laughs, though some counselors were rumored to be sore the next day (we won't mention her name, but her initials are JT!).  We look forward to Whiffle Ball III !

It's only 9 days into the new year and we've already got some huge site updates! Oh Yeah! We've added a few more photo albums from the busy month of December that you can check out in the Multimedia Section AND we got a special poem written by the Junior Girls during the winter retreat.

Praise God for a Great Retreat! We thank the Lord for meeting with us during a special winter retreat. Many have been "made over" and have begun a course of living that will lead them to God's heart. Others who have been stumbling along were strengthened to walk a more stable and focused walk. Many thanks to our awesome counselors and to our super seniors for giving their hearts and energy to making it such a great time! Pictures are up in the Multimedia Section.

Register this Sunday after service or Sunday School for an unbelievable time of getting made over by the supreme Makeover Artist Himself! It'll be a great time of learning and fellowship in the setting of God's Majestic creation. You'll have the opportunity to befriend and minister to the 7/8th graders. Email Robert or Ruth Ann for more info.

In a wildly fun and exciting whiffle ball game that went down to the final inning, the counselors (and the Hsieh kids) pulled out a 13-9 victory over the TD students! Congrats to all for a great time! We've posted some pictures for you to view if you missed out!

Props to Alan, Caleb, Candace, Clara, Eunice, George, Ian, Ivana, Justin, Leslie, Peter, Robert, Tammy, Joan, and the Hsiehs for lending a helping hand and bringing the Thanksgiving spirit to the convalescent home last month! Awesome job, guys!

It's up! After months of anticipation, we've been able to put up 2005 Total Devotion Slide Show. Sorry to keep you all waiting, so go ahead and view this video as well as other great stuff in our multimedia section.

We've added a few new Question and Answers items. We hope they are helpful. Keep the questions coming, we'll churn out the answers!

"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever(!)"  Psalm 118:1 

It's November.  Our forefathers have wisely set time aside for reflection, so we can remember the areas in our lives that we so often take for granted.

Nick Vujicic writes, "As I grew older God continued to prepare my heart and teach me to seek Him. One of the first lessons that I have learnt was not to take things for granted (emphasis mine). I had that wake up call around the age of twelve and realized just how much I was blessed with. I take my foot for granted, my family, and the fact that I wasn't born in a third world country - all blessings that God had freely given and I still complain?"  

This realization was a real turning point for Nick, and it can be for you.  Click here for Arthur's devotion on how to "know Him" in an extra special way this Thanksgiving month and be prepared for the joy to follow.

Come join fellow TD'ers and Counselors on Saturday, December 3 at 8 a.m. as we run in South Pasadena's annual 5K/10K Tiger Run.  A few of us ran last year and had a blast.  It would be great to run together and burn off that Thanksgiving turkey.  Early registration is $15 (includes long-sleeve t-shirt) and ends 11/23.  Check out sptigerrun.com for more info.

A big thanks to Garrett, Robert, Tammy, Candace, Justin, Ian, and Peter for serving the Lord last month!  The Lord promises, "...Those who honor me I will honor..."  You can take that to the bank!

It's a whole new year here at Total Devotion and we've decided to redesign our old site. We know, it's not really that old, but we are sure you'll love this new one. Enjoy!

Candace, George, and Peter, we witnessed your public declaration that Jesus is Lord and that, by His grace, you will follow Him all the days of your life.  We rejoice with you and aim to keep you accountable to your vows!  

Praise #1:  9/30 - Kudos to all of you who participated in and/or brought friends to "The Noise We Make"!  It was a wonderful night and you all did a terrific job!  Please pray for the seeds that were sown.  

Praise #2: 10/1 - The Joni and Friends "Through the Roof" conference was a great opportunity for us to serve and learn.  Much thanks to all who volunteered (over 20!).  We were all blessed to serve and to hear the incredible speakers (including Nick Vujicic)!  Our lives were touched.  The Lord is preparing us for something ...!   

Praise #3: 10/2 - What an unbelievable afternoon with Nick Vujicic!!!  We all were touched and challenged by God in a powerful way, through His servant, to get on the front lines and glorify God in ALL circumstances.  Unforgettable.  What's also amazing is the teamwork of the body of Christ to get an event like this together in less than 24 hours!  When God wants to do something,  there's no stopping Him.

Give a jewel to Justin, Ian, Alan, Robert, Eddie, and Jenny as they received God's blessings last month.  You guys are building future character that God will definitely use and bless!  I'll email you guys the results of our round robin triathlon - I won't tell you who won, but it starts with an "A" and he's older than 18!:)
