So much going on....

Wow - seems like everything is happening at mock speed. Our youth pastor @church - Travis and his wife Kristen are in labor right now. We are waiting word at any moment - my Aunt Sharon and Uncle Buster are out of town visiting family in Illinois this week - I miss talking with her this week. They never venture far from the farm so its weird they are not here or online or getting an email from her. Hope they are enjoying their trip even though the reason for travel is that Uncle Buster has a brother that was diagnosed with cancer. I am praying that the Lord is with them up and down the highways.
Work has been busy with fiscal year coming to a close, faculty leaving and preperations of new faculty arriving, students are finishing up finals and faculty are putting in grades.

I shared with our Rock Group this past Sunday concerning our "Outreach" this summer. Once a month we will get together and invite those around us who are wanting and needing to get plugged in - plugged into community- plugged in to doing life together- plugged into a support system - plugged into other Christian families and people who will grow closer together, closer to God and closer in our church. We will be meeting in the community doing fun things - like fishing at the park, pool party at the house with cookout, Summer movie times, baseball games, movies like when the Chronicles of Narnia comes out on May 15th, music at the University - lots of different things we can do while enjoying investing in each other.
Looking forward to heading to the cabin this coming Friday - its a short visit but a needed one. Carol and I will spend a little time tomorrow getting Sunday School craft figured out for this coming Sunday. Its mothers day and that is always a special day- even at church. Carol has scored some giveaways that will be given to some moms and that is always special.
Looking forward to seeing all "MyKids" @ lunch this week. 2 days in a row with no lunches........ I will be pumped tomorrow~
Feeling better today ~ Got some grass to cut tonight.... I always enjoy that time serving the people I love.
