weekend reflections

Here goes, in no particular order:

1. Couldn't help but notice a LOT of folks missing in TP this weekend - I'm so spoiled by usually preaching to a full auditorium that all the empty seats was really noticeable. But I've heard good reports about the attendance at our other campuses, and all told, there were lots of new guests at CLC today, so I'm thankful!

2. Heard some incredible testimonies from our GO campaign, and how folks are already being blessed as a result (they say) of their obedience in stepping out in faith to make a commitment beyond what they could afford. In at least 2 or 3 cases, new job offers have already been received, resulting in hundreds of dollars in additional monthly income!

3. Talk about proud - that's the word to describe my feelings about our missions team that just returned from Senegal! Hearing the stories of how our team served 900 patients in 3 days is incredible, and even more wonderful are the individual stories of some whose lives were changed by our going there. My hats off to Drs. Yomi & Mope Akintorin and Julie Taylor, as well as the nurses and intercessors who served so faithfully on this trip under the direction of our Missions Director, Scott Pachol. You are my heroes!

4. Just watched the Bear's frustrating loss to Seattle, and I mean it this time: I'm ready for Kyle Orton and Garrett Wolfe! C'mon, let's at least see what they've got - it can't be any worse than Rex and Cedric, can it? Anybody with me on that? Lovie, are you reading this?
