Happy Early Birthday!

The Lord used a boy in Base Camp to be such a blessing to me. This week in Hopkinsville, KY I asked two kids how old they were and then I asked "when's your birthday?" Come to find out one of the boys birthday was the day before mine. Well a few nights later I was greeted with a birthday card and early birthday present. He was very thoughtful and wanted to get me something because I was going to be away from my family. Last night his mother told me that they would be praying for me.

I thank the Lord that He chooses to use people to be a blessing to one another.

Our next stop will be in Dallas, Georgia.

On the Road Again

My second year of traveling with Life Action Ministries has officially started. At the end of July the new teams were all in Buchanan, Michigan to start traveling for the 2009-2010 season. Last week my team arrived in Troy, TN for our 1st 4-day THIRST Conference. The conference went very well. I am helping out in Base Camp (2nd grade to 6th grade) again. I enjoyed our Tuesday night service with the kids; they were terrific. They were so attentive to the story and were enthusiastic singing the songs. One little boy was so into the story that he almost fell off his chair while he was listening.

This week we are in Hopkinsville, KY. This morning was our Sunday service where we have the children for 3 hours. The count was over 60 kids. I hope that most of them get to come back. There are quite a few that come through a bus ministry. Please pray that things will go well for them so that the ones that minister to them all the time can take a break and be refreshed themselves.

Oh this year my team consist of 15 team members and 3 families. All but the 3 families and 6 of the girls are new to traveling with Life Action. Please pray for us as we transition with the new team and that the new team members would adjust easily to our crazy traveling schedule.
