Bad blogging. I have been less than faithful, but I've been on the road.
A couple key things happening that you'll no doubt be hearing follow up on in the next few days and weeks. Dave Curtiss came out to visit. He's a great friend and mentor and he and I talked LOTS about ministry, life and next steps for both of us (mostly me though). He also shared with the youth workers here and with some youth pastors on our district. He's great. He communicates his heart so well. We're already seeing changes and a difference in the peoples were with!

Also we went and visited Doug and Shelly Pagitt and their family in Minnesota. Carol and I (and Isaiah) had a great time and were so impressed and overwhelmed with Doug and Shelley and Matt Henry's hospitality. They were just great. The visit went well too. Just being around them teaches us much. More to come on all that.

Today Kevin and Joy Snow are coming to visit and set up for the convention at our church this weekend. They are great friends and we are much looking forward to it.
