What a weekend...and I still have small group tonight!

Saturday morning started it off...I met with our team that will be going to China...this is going to be an amazing trip...Not able to go into the details, but would appreciate your prayers...heading out March 23 for 10 days and am rallying my prayer/financial support...GREAT TEAM!

Last night was...fun...great memories...good laughs...renewed friendship...just a great time with Jason and Bill...I hoped that it would be fun...I figured that Bill, Jason and I would share some stories and laughs. I didn't know...that after almost 18 years since the last time all 3 of us were together...if we would really reconnect...would the friendship be renewed or would it just a fun night and see you in another 18 years.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THESE GUYS AGAIN! Can't wait to have our families hang out sometime...would love for Kelsey and the kids meet these guys and their families. Just a blast sharing old and new stories and stirring up a friendship with 2 of my closest H.S. buds! Thanks for taking the time guys...it was worth it!

This mornings service was good...the worship time brought me to tears several times...the picks of the orphans that we support in Asia...thinking that these kids now have a home and people that love them...the music was WOW! Jim's message on Grace was powerful...frustrating from a tech point of view because the video would hesitate..........for...............a moment...........every........once.......in a........while. The message came through though and the ending made you forget the faults in the video. We finished with Amazing Grace...beautiful...moving...powerful...

And the weekend isn't over...small group is in a couple hours!

Well we showed up at Frickers in Maumee, OH last night at 5...5:30 and the next thing we knew it was 9:30 and time to hit the road. We talked about our families...jobs...the army...old High School and Middle School stories...might have been a sarcastic comment or 2 mixed in too. Bill still lives around Manchester (that was our town in the Akron area) so it was fun to hear about what other friends were doing.
