What a whirlwind of a week!!!
After church last Sunday night, our band of travelers headed out on a quest of epic proportions. Our group included myself, my wife Becky, her sister Jacky, Daimian, Erica, and our two boys Joey and Seth. We stayed the night at Tyler's house in Tualatin, then drove back into Portland to have breakfast and go bowling with Andy, Becky and Jacky's brother. If you have never been bowling before noon, it's pretty much like bowling any other time...only earlier. We dropped the kids off with my sister, Julie and were on our way.
We then headed down to Keizer to Tony's house, who is pretty much the coolest brown guy I know! That was where we called home until Tuesday. Together, we helped out with the Seven Project at West Salem High School and Jefferson High School. That was totally amazing and I look forward to working alongside Seven more in the future.
On Wednesday, we all headed over to Lincoln City where we frolicked along the beach, shopped at the Outlet malls, and then returned to the beach to witness Tony's mad bonfire-building skills and roasted marshmallows and hot dogs until dark.
After the Seven @ Night rally Thursday we headed to Albany to The Master's Student Leadership Conference and Fine Arts Festival. I judged competitors in the Female Vocal Solo and Worship Team Categories. During the Friday night service which featured the Generation Unleashed Band for worship and lasted four hours long, God laid something on my heart and renewed my burden for ministry. God gave me some short term specifics so I'm awaiting to see how He makes those things come to pass.
Pray for us. Becky and I are both really sick. I'm not sure if it is coincidence or the incredible exhaustion and lack of sleep of such a whirlwind week. And...to top it off, we have another whirlwind week. We're moving this week into a 3 bedroom house that is going to be so perfect for our family. We've lived in multi-family dwellings (duplexes or apartments) ever since we were married over seven years ago, so an actual house is going to be so nice. It has a nice yard for the kids to play in and is in such a nice neighborhood.
