My blogging style has changed – maybe temporarily, maybe permanently. It’s evolved, if you will, to meet the growing needs of my family. I no longer have time to sit down 5 times a week and write about my thoughts, my plans, my stories, my ideas, nor do I have the time to detail my …
Continuing the medical theme from summer camp, enter the 2012 4th and 5th grade winter retreat held right at our church. The older kids get to go all the way to the camp in Michigan for two days, but as a cost-saving measure for the parents I am sure, this crowd gets one night with …
Over the years I have wondered if I actually have any emotions. Besides anger. When my grandparents, one by one, passed away (one is still alive at about 90) I know I should have felt more than I did. I’m embarrassed to say that even when I lost my father I didn’t grieve overly much, …
Some random kid-related stuff to report… First, my “visitor” showed up to my Sunday morning class. I haven’t had the time to blog about it, but basically there is a parent who came to drop her daughter off a few weeks ago at the worst time possible, and the kids were all over the place …
This post was written last Tuesday, before the last post, but the sentiments still apply of course. There was a video too, but unfortunately I did not get permission to post it here. However, once it is officially posted at the church website I will be allowed to post that link. Technically, the video is …
‘Tis that time of year again, when things come to an end for the hot season. This month is halfway over, and jobs will soon dry up for me. I anticipate this week will be my last full week for work, assuming I can find jobs for Thursday and Friday- the rest of the week …
Of course we know last weekend was Easter weekend. For me, that means celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Of course, before a resurrection, there had to be a death. That is what Good Friday is all about. Now, some churches celebrate the entire week starting with Palm Sunday, going into Holy Monday – Holy …
Being that it’s been five days since my last post, I would suppose it’s time to write something again. But what? I suppose I can write about this weekend. This post will actually go back a bit though, since earlier events pertain to this weekend. For the most part the weekend was quite ordinary. 4th/5th …
Winter Blast 2009 that is. Meh- this post is two days late I know. I just didn’t feel like doing a second post on Sunday, and I did start this yesterday but I really didn’t have the time I needed to write the whole thing between work and small group. Anyway, back to the post. …
Our 4th and 5th grade ministry has been undergoing some changes as of late. Early this summer the one who headed it up for the last several years passed the reigns over to the one who had been running the younger ages for some time. His own duties now encompass the entire children’s and student …
