Sunday afternoon was a blast! First, we joined almost everyone who was at the Sunday service in taking a tour of the new building. Because of the cold weather, the company's construction crews have been busy working inside in our building. Most of the walls are framed in and it was easy to see what the building was going to look like. I even put a board across the joists of the platform to get a feel for what it is going to be like. People had tons of questions and were looking for things that they could do to help. It's easy to believe that in a few weeks the project will be done to the point of our being able to move in. I'm looking forward to it!
Even more fun was going to the DQ afterwards (could this become a weekly after church event?). I got a chance to talk to the two people who are heading up our youth ministry. All I can say is, "Wow!" We've gone from four or five kids a few years ago to thirty. It was great to hear the stories of God's work in people's lives and to have the chance to have their enthusiasm rub off on me.
After a few minutes at home I went back to church to sit in on our deaconate meeting. This is an incredible group that is trying to figure out how we can do a better job of caring for people. They are so eager to be the hands and feet of Jesus that it really inspires me.
What a great day!
