Vikes beat the Pack (if you haven't heard)!
- In other news... :)
- After all the Christmas stuff going on, it felt so good to have a more "normal" Sunday!
- Found this 70 second video of the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert last night. I'm not kidding when I say this is my dream of what we want to do to our auditorium when we remodel! (Scaled down of course!)
- Speaking of remodeling, I got a sneak peek this week of one of the design/build firm's idea on design for our facility and I would be lying if I didn't say it has me STOKED to get going on making it happen!
- Solid attendance this morning in spite of having a lot of people gone.
- I'm totally looking forward to next Sunday and starting the new series "Zombies Among Us"
- This series is going to bring life to a lot of people who are living half-dead, half-alive relationships with Jesus!
- Yes...it really is FREEZING outside. Can you say "below zero"?
- Pray for John & Michele Pennucci and their kids. Michele's grandpa suddenly passed away and they are traveling to Wisconsin on Tuesday for the funeral. John is speaking at the funeral.
- Had several new guests this morning. LOVE that!!
- Rumor has it that I got a banjo for Christmas. Rumor is true. But I'm a long way from pickin and grinnin!
- Sandy & I are taking on a "no spending no frills" challenge in January. We are only spending money on essentials - no frills. This will be interesting. Anyone want to join us?
- Really good offering this morning. Takes some stress off my shoulders.
- Sign lights were installed this week so now when you drive by the church after dark, you can see "Meadow Spring Church". Go check it out!
- Meadow was featured on page A15 of the Chaska Herald this past week. That's two weeks in a row we were featrued in a local newspaper.
- These next 4-6 weeks are critical for our next phase of remodeling as we discuss our capital campaign and finalize which design/build firm we will partner with to do the construction. - Really need your prayers!
- Went to see Les Miserables this past week. Lots of talk about this movie. My opinion? ... Not enough explosions, gun fights, blood, and high-speed chases.
- Got my preaching calendar all set up through Memorial Day. Now I get to start writing and making it all reality! I LOVE my job!
- These last few weeks have been intense weeks for our volunteers. Some have gone way above the call of duty and I am so appreciative of each one of them! We have the most awesome volunteers!
- My plans for New Year's Eve? I'll probably be in bed by 10 and celebrate in my dreams. Yup...I am a real partier.
- I'm really fighting the battle of too much routine. I never want my ministry to be routine. I want it to be fresh and vibrant. I would appreciate your prayers.
- Well...that's about all my mind can dump tonight.
- Later.
