Excitement!

I could feel excitement in the church this last week as people became globaly focused, Kris has volunteered for the stowe center, and I felt the stirring for the first time about a mission trip, stay tuned as I pray about direction. Colin had his first farm games this weekend, he played in three games in Thornville. The team went 1 and 2, but the experience for our young team was great. Colin played shortstop, second base, and third base, he even pitched briefly and for the first time on a mound, with batters in the box , I thought he did well. The boys and I went fishing, and took one of his teamates who's parents are going through a messy divorce with us. We all caught something and had a good time, only when we were going home did I check my phone, it was Sam, I forgot I was going to help Pastor Dear move some things, oops sorry Pastor. Work continues to be busy, and now I have to work overtime Saturday, and will miss moving day, If it wasn't mandatory, I would say no. Continue to pray for a man named Scott McDonald he is searching for answers, another coach and I had the priveledge to pray with him on the third base line at a game Saturday. Anyway, continue to pray for our Pastors and thier families and the church as we go forward.

LOTS TO BE THANKFUL FOR!

A new worship Pastor, make sure at some point to thank all those who worked hard while the search went on. Thanks for a great search team, lots of hours, and time away from family went into this search. Global focus is finally here and I'm thanful for what God will do through his people when they are obedient. Thankful for Family, immediate, and my extended church family. What a great way to start spring, when God makes all things new. Colin scored the first two goals of his brief soccer career, of course I was working OT and missed it, what is that song by Casting Crowns called thankfully he's eight and will probably score again sometime. I am looking forward to golf, I have been tuning up on the range at work and things are staring to take form, now it's time to take it to the course. My friend Sam started his new job this week, and I wish him the best. Oh well hope to see all of you at global focus this week, God bless

Awesome weekend!

What a great weekend, Jim P. did not have a heart attack, praise Jesus, got to meet who I pray will be our new worship Pastor, his wife, and family. I thought he was great, and would be a great addition to an already great staff. Just got back from fishing with the boys, Colin caught a nice bass, and we all caught something, Colin had the trophy fish today though. I would like to see some warmer weather so I could play some golf, anything under 60 and I stay home. Kris, and Amy went to bunco Friday, so Sam came over for pizza me Sam and the boys jumped in the hot tub for awhile, and wanted to play Tiger Woods golf, but it was at the Georges, so we crashed the Georges and got to meet Shawn and Penny ahead of time. Lets pray this week for Gods will to be accomplished in the vote this week. Don't forget to pray for the Pastors, and thier families.

Great Easter/ More to come.

What fantastic news for our Church over 800 in services, Baptism, and Salvation. Thank you Jesus, and now, a great weekend ahead with a prospective worship Pastor coming. Easter lunch was fantastic, and a Christian man won The Masters and gave glory to Jesus for being his help during the times he was most nervous. The weather needs to break now, and let golfing begin again, so much for global warming. Remember to pray for the Pastors, and thier families during this busy stretch coming up, pray specifically for God to give them extra strength and wisdom. Also pray for all the other leaders in the Church I believe God has great things in store for FBCH, we need to keep our eyes on the prize.

Golf finally,

I finally got to break out the clubs, Sam Smith and I went to Granville Golf Course Saturday, although it raine the last 5 holes it was still fun. Sam made some strides with his game, hit his new irons well, still needs to improve with his driver, and he will. My game was hot and cold, 1 good, 1 so, so, one bad typical for the first round. The boys and I also got to fish together Friday, Austin caught the most as usual. Then today Austin fished most of the morning, while I stayed home, and waited for the plumber to get here to find where the water in the hall closet was coming from. Thankfully it was just a leak coming from the water line going into the fridge, could have been something much worse, thank you Lord. I would ask that you would pray for my Brother Kerry, he has been living in his car, been arrested for failure to appear, and has an infection in his Jaw, I believe in miracles and believe that is what it will take to save him now. I know the Bible doesn't specifically say not to drink, however I'm not sure what good could come from drinking. Pray for my mom, as this continues to be a tough thing for her to deal with.
