It’s been some time since the last update – we’ve been on Spring Break. I trust you had a great time celebrating our Risen Savior. My family and I took some time away recently, which was refreshing and much needed.  Now we’re back in to the swing of things, as you’ll see below. I’m excited for what the Lord has in store for us.

I’m full.  Full of joy and full of a Steak and Shake burger. I just got back this evening from a fantastic time out with our Senior High guys, as it was Growth Group Night. It’s exciting for me to see the deep and healthy relationships being forged. As I drove, we took the scenic route back to the church, leaving time for us to share requests and pray for each other. I’m grateful to have these guys in my life. Our other groups had similar experiences.

One of the highlights this week has been reading through summer internship applications.  We interviewed seven candidates on Tuesday, and are in the process of following-up with potential candidates.  Please be in prayer for these summer servants.

We anticipate needing housing for 2 college girls for 11 weeks during the summer.  Please contact me if you might be able to help in this area.

I’m praying for you. Recent conversations have reminded me of what a huge responsibility parenting is. Certainly there are times of immense joy and reward. But, there’s no doubt about it, it’s hard work. I’m praying that you had wisdom, patience, love, and endurance for each moment as you parent the kids God’s entrusted to you. Read more…
