a good buzy-ness


i know its been awhile since a real post here. there’s been much that has complicated my schedule of late..but all in a good way.
-a celebration of 29 years of marriage to Rose, the most amazingly beautiful woman on the planet.
-going to the son’s graduation from bootcamp and enjoying our family while there.  my parents and my aunt and uncle met up with us at parris island.
-enjoyed the newly minted marine (when he was at home)
-a quick trip to the ‘back to hang with some really incredible Kingdom warriors aka the pdym communtiy for the gathering
-launching the.evolution youth ministry for the 08/09 school year
-having some great phone and face to face conversations with some great youth guys about where ministry is going and how to stay ahead of the curve – kevin west jeff borton mike lovato davey blackburn and the nick carnes
-watching a great group of student leaders step out in new ways and stand out for Kingdom with Fields of Faith. (the picture above is from the wrap up prayer circle from the event this past week.) there’s some great video of the drama and some more pictures at the bottom of the post.
-celebrating the life of Rose’s grandfather, Harry was 91. just 6 months ago we were celebrating his 70th wedding anniversary. it was odd to be back in the same place for a different purpose.
-installing a new floor on the front porch and getting it painted.
-prepping to serve on an epiphany team for mohican juvenile correction – my first team experience as a “clergy”
