A prayer request...

Yesterday's in church I received an answer to prayer from GOD through Jim Samra (Calvary Church's Pastor). That prayer was "Why did you have to take Dad and Why has someone I love had to suffer in the last 6 years?" I am not going to tell you the answer, but if you would like to get the jest of the message check out Noelle's blog (just click on her name).

As great as the message was I was not expecting to have to apply it to my life already again. Grandma (my mom's mom) is been ill for the last few months, but we could not figure out what was wrong. My mom has spent the last 3 days in Freemont. Today I called her to see how Grandma was doing and she started to cry. Grandma's kidneys are failing, so Mom and Aunt Pam have to decide weather or not to put her on dialyses. So I just ask for prayers that they may make the best choice for my Grandma. I will keep you up dated.

JUST PRAY PLEASE!!!

Operation Christmas Child (post 1)

Last Sunday Noelle and I were sitting in church when they announced Operation Christmas Child or Shoe boxes. I turned to Noelle and said is there anyway we could do this with the children to teach them to give to others. She said, "I have always wanted to but it always been an issue of money." This year we have had an out pouring of financial support for Sunday's that we decide to take some of the extra we have right now have the children put together shoe boxes.

Step one earlier this week we sent out a letter to all the children explaining what items they could bring to church Sunday that would help fill the shoe boxes.

The one family that neither Noelle or I thought would bring something brought this...




Step two was going shopping. After lunch at church today Noelle sat the kids down an explained to them what we were going to do. Then we invaded the Dollar Tree with 16 kids and 2 adults. Each kid picked out at least one item for the shoe boxes...


and I think we made out pretty good. What do you think??

More steps to come next week...

Now member of Facebook and Myspace

Wow it is hard to believe that it is already November. The one really great thing is that there is no snow on the ground yet.

Last night I had a friend invite me to be on Facebook. I always said I wouldn't get on those sites, but I am now on both Facebook and Myspace. It has allowed me to connect to some old friends that I figure I would never hear from again. It is interesting seeing where people from high school are now. I am very careful of what I put on it, because you here of potential employers checking out these site to get insight into who they are hiring.

Well other then that not much has went on this week.

TO COME...
Sunday Noelle and I are taking the kids that go to church with us shopping for items to fill shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child. So hopefully I will have pictures and reactions to the project for you.


May God Bless you today!!!
