Well, today was the garage sale for CWF and the Youth. Our basement and shed have been full of stuff for two weeks now, and it is really nice that that’s all out of there. We started early this morning, and probably had 300 people come to the garage sale. We made [...]

Last night we had the second meeting of our men’s Life Transformation Group. It is a type of small group that excels in accountability and discipleship. We meet together for an hour, asking accountability questions of each other, and discussing the reading for the week… And that’s it. We read 26-30 chapters [...]

Ah, what a day… Sara and I mostly hung out, but we went to Stephanie’s volleyball game (they won, of course). Then I messed with some electronics stuff (tried to patch cords that the dog’s had chewed, mostly successful), and worked on a Ringo Pro review. Ringo Pro is a progam that allows [...]

Youth Group was a blast. We had 12 youth show up for a lesson (on Galatians 6:1-2, helping your friends and not getting pulled down yourself!), some snacks, and then we went outside and played some capture the flag. Since it was dark (at 7:30pm!), we used glowsticks for the flags, and glow [...]

Yesterday Lights On (the after school program that I work for) started in full, meaning that I actually taught yesterday. It was a crazy couple of hours, and the kids were going crazy! I’d lobby for more recess time, but they get a lot already, hah. Its going well though and it [...]

We had a freak rainstorm yesterday (it almost never rains), which caused a large amount of water to come down off the hills behind the Stelzner’s house… which then ran into a bedroom window, shattering it. The floor was covered with water, but after shoveling, pumping and ripping out the carpets, it is mostly [...]

For youth group on Thursday, we had a game night. You can see pictures to the right in my Flickr Photoset, so click on that and there’s more to check out. We played the Bobbing for Skittles game, which involves (of course) bobbing for Skittles in flour… It was the messiest, and the [...]

Finally a new post, eh? I just received my new Treo 650 in the mail, and I’m posting with it right now… Pretty cool!
