Consumed by the Call

After much prayer and discussion by our Church Council, they have given me the go ahead to continue this ministry with our youth. I'm delighted to continue this mentoring time with our youth at Higher Grounds. This is answered prayer. Join us there this Saturday from 9am-11am.

We will be meeting at Higher Grounds this Saturday August 2nd. Invite a friend!

Well, Maybe not Epic but it was fun and everyone managed to stay safe and behave themselves. Our student leaders did a great job and were a huge help. Thank you.

This weekend is going to begin a very long week for Kirsten and I. I'm looking forward to the week as much as the Friday that follows. Tonight we will have 25 to 30 kids for an overnighter. I'm hoping the kids have a great time tonight. We will also be decorating the church for VBS which starts Sunday night. I've assembled a simple website that will lead to different photo galleries, one for each night of vbs. Check it our here: www.stjohnuccfreeport.org/VBS

We have been meeting at Higher Grounds for two years now and our mentoring group is ready to enter "The Gathering". This new group will find itself moving around town each Saturday morning. Please consider joining us.

Kirsten and I started a new blog together. We will be reviewing two new wines each week. If your a wine drinker take a look and comment. Also submit a comment about different wines you think we should try. The blog is called Warped Palate .

Kirsten told me the other night that I was only five pounds from my weightloss stretch goal . I have until next tuesday to lose the five pounds. I have to say, I'm on a mission. I've worked out everyday this week so far and plan to keep it up. I love my elliptical.
