Althought this week I have felt like Johnny on the spot. The week started so crazily from Monday on. We started out by having Ray Fulenwider come in to talk to us about starting our new fundraising campaign. We have just finished the process of having some new drawings done to build a new education facility, new teen area (uh thank you) and a new lobby on to the auditorium, lot's of work to say the least...not to mention parking and gym renovation.
Since then I have felt like we have run crazy from one meeting to the next. One of the best things though is that through out this craziness we have had an amazing week. God has been with us and blessed us. I know that he is getting ready to do (and has already done) some awesome stuff here in Mobile.
On Wednesday night at "The Calling" we had such an awesome time. We had fifteen of our teens respond for prayers and one baptism. WOW!!! God is good!
Susan and I are thinking of heading to Nashvegas this weekend to see family and just hang out. Since SonQuest was cancelled due to Frances. More to come later....
Father, Thank you for everything that is a blessing. Even those things which don't look so good are blessings from you many times. Thanks for supporting, encouraging, and loving us. Never leaving us to fend for ourselves. Thank you for Ryan Schumann and his decision to accept your love and your Son as his Savior!! We love you. Amen!!!

Have a good trip, Chris. E-me when you get back...or when we get back. We may leave town for a few days and let Frances have her way. Last projected path put it going right up the state line between MS and AL. That's not happy news...the storm is as big as Texas itself! Keep up the good work at THE CALLING. In a late nite talkfest last night with my son and Joel and myself, we talked about you and getting the Saturday night Gathering off the ground. Will keep you informed!

Chris -- I saw you. You were in the orange shirt with the pretty wife and baby, yes? My husband and I were sitting right behind the praise team seats -- him in blue and me in tan, if you happened to look over that way. I had to leave before it was over to get kids. I came back to the auditorium and couldn't find you. Oh, well! At least I saw you! Hope it was a blessing. If you're coming to ZOE, you'd better introduce yourself!! :) I heard her, by the way -- and she was fine. It's always nice to hear children so long as they're not screaming.

Yes Clarissa, That was us, man I wish I had seen you. Sorry. I am sure we will see you soon.
