Time to catch up!

Well since Thanksgiving things continue to get more busy, Colin is almost done with indoor soccer, and he, and Austin have both started upwards practice. This has been our busiest fall by far. The Christmas drama was a great success, all who participated did a great job, the choir was awesome and it was neat to see Michael and Jenae doing the lines. With Michaels busy work schedule, Jenae was actually feeding him lines during some practices. What an awesome family they have Julia and Johnathon also took part and did a wonderful job. As did Joshua Ryan Smith and Andrew Rafferty. It was also nice to see so many youth get involved. The more I get to know Pastor Dear, and Pastor Shawn the more I am glad God brought them and thier families to the Church. They join two of my favorite people who were already here. Anyway May God Bless you this Christmas season, and remember the reason we celebrate. P.S. Thank you Gina for doing a great job with Pastor Shawn in getting everything ready.

Thanksgiving

What a great thanksgiving, spent with friends and family. My lovely wife, and I spent early friday morning shopping for the boys, it was so much fun. Friday evening we hada couple of people over to watch a basketball game, about halfway through the evening I started feeling a little ill, by midnight, I was deep in the throws of possibly the worst virus I have ever had, it is Sunday morning and I am just starting to feel somewhat normal. My prayer is for nobody else to get this wicked virus, and if you should end up with it I pray for quick heeling. My fantasy football team has had a tough year, but I have won two in a row Jeff. In any case I pray that this Christmas season finds you and yours in good spirits, and may we all remember the reason for the season. May we draw near to he who was born to save us.

Hello it's me

Hello all, sorry it took so long to update, soccer is over not, colin will be playing indoor now. And then there is upwards, for both boys. Austin got to go hunting with Brandon Salyer, didn't get anything but almost, what a great guy, Austin really looks up to Corey and Brandon, a couple of great young men, great upbringing. Have really enjoyed Marks teaching in Jeffs class he has been a great sub. Sam, I have been thinking of you, and your procedure hope your healing well.
I read the Pastors last couple of Blogs, and couldn't agree more, as if kids that age didn't have enough to struggle with. I can't wait for the visitation program to start, it is a great way to reach people who visit quickly, and let them know we care, a former Pastor did this with great results.
I am so thankful for a Pastor who cares so much about reaching people.

Catching up!!

Well, revival went well, what a blessing to be a part of such a God honoring church, with God honoring leadership. Looking forward to what God is gonna do through those of us who choose to be obedient, and humble ouselves and pray. Got to play golf this last weekend, and what great weather. Played by myself on Friday and it was good, I found myself praying at different times during the round as I waited to hit my next shot, just talking to God, and doing what I don't always do best listening. God revealed himself that day through a peace he gave me, the breeze coming off the lake, the sonshine, the birds. The next day I had the priveledge to play with Pastor Shawn, and we took our sons along, and although it took awhile with the boys along, what a blast. A great time was had at the Salyers tail gate party, Sam and Jim won the cornhole championship, I think a rematch is in order. Then Sunday, great services and seeing my friend
Troy accept the call to be our youth Pastor. What are the chances of all these awesome things happening, with God 100%. Pray for LLoyd Carr, Michigans coach, he needs it, I glad I've come to the point in my life where I understand it is just football. That being said Go Blue, Go Akron.

Revival!!!!!

Revival is coming pray,pray,pray! May we humble ourselves and pray. Pray for lives to be changed eternally. Pray that it will be the start of something big here and abroad, If we are simply Obedient, God will do grat things next week. If you haven't signed up to play golf, please do and invite an unsaved friend.

Theres gonna be a revival!

Thanksgiving

I am in such awe, of how God is working in our church, I'm thankful for the leadership team God has put in Place. The past, is just that, past, and my family and I look forward to what God is going to do. Kris and I, and the boys, are thankful that Haley Smiths injury wasn't as bad as was first thought. There has been such a sweet spirit in service lately, and God is working in our midst. The youth group continues to grow in spiritual maturity, and God has provided some great youth workers to support a great Youth Pastor. His passion for teens is so evident, and yet when you hear him speak he is equally passionate about adults coming to know the Lord. Pray for Stefanie as she is looking for full time work, and pray for her transportation situation.
Michael, and Donna Georges nephew led in worship before Sunday School this morning, it was an awesome way to start the day, and Taylor is truly talented. Shawn, and Penny, with Zach, and Brianna, are finally all here and together. To me it seems as though they have been a part of our family for years. They have just fit in so nicely, and are so easy to get to know. God has inspired me to get more invloved in recreational areas in the Church, and I am organizing a golf outing, please pray that God will guide me in this endeavor. Isn't it nice that God has been adding some already spiritually mature Christians to our Church and how they are stepping up and leading, It is also nice to see Christians mature from within and step up and serve. May we continue to strive and focus on glorifying Gods name.

Thank you God, Sean
