It's been a while...

Today, after church, Kylee and I napped for 5 hours and then at 9:30 went to Red Lobster where I had 3 glasses of coke. The result: it's past 2 a.m. and I'm not tired one bit.

I realize that it has been a long time since I have posted on this blog... Honestly, there is just too much to say and one blog post won't do it justice... so I just decide not to post at all... Well, that's not a good thing. You guys need to be in the know, right? Just letting you know that this post won't do it justice... but this post is of what I can think of right now at 2:20 a.m. as I try to get tired.

Kylee has been speaking more and more for Aftershock (reminder: this is our youth service) as Gabe was doing a lot of wedding planning. Speaking of: he and his now wife got married this last Saturday.. that was fun... now they are in Mexico for a week and we here in Indiana are jealous. I've been leading worship for Aftershock off and on, giving our main Aftershock worship leader, Joel, a break. I lead about once a month... sometimes twice... it's fun.. and it stretches me.. I'm not naturally a good singer OR piano player... God is good none the less and He is strong in our weaknesses.

May newsletters went out at the end of this last week, so if you haven't gotten them already, be expecting them in the mail sometime early this week. Kylee starts a month long summer class this week... which costs us a pretty $900! yay! ... .. .. .

None the less.. God continues to prove himself faithful in providing and the stimulus check will come in handy! Anybody else happy about that??

We have bikes now... and we ride them to work and back... lucky for us we live close to our office building... gas prices are not looking very good... so, buy bikes and don't drive! ... if you can.

I have a few videos that I want to post up here when I get around to it... they are clips of Kylee speaking at Aftershock and one has a few quick little edits of me leading worship... which is a treat ;) I'm sure you guys are just thrilled!! haha.

Oh! Kylee is speaking in the main Adult Services on June 22nd (which for you CHOGers is Camp Meeting) and both Kylee's mom, sister-in-law (and maybe brother), and my parents just so happen to be in town that same weekend!!! That should be fun... This is an amazing opportunity for God to use Kylee in such a huge way! We have about 1000 in attendance at our Adult Services and with Camp Meeting that same week, we could potentially have a bit more than that. Kylee is really excited and a bit nervous... (we just realized this about Camp Meeting today) I'm excited for my wife as I see how talented and amazing she is. People at our church are finally taking notice of how incredible she is and I'm so proud of her! God is moving in such a huge way down here. I wish each of you could be down here to see it!

My pastor thinks I'm really talented in making videos, websites, graphics, etc and I have really been put to use in that area a lot lately while continuing to work with youth... I hate to admit it but I'm becoming kind of the computer guy for the staff.. which I'm not totally excited about.. but I believe it's a role that God wants me to be right now (while I'm continuing being in kids' lives). But just like in a small business, staff in general have to take on several different roles, which is what Kylee and I are finding that we are doing - it's not a bad thing... but The Bridge (and most churches I'm sure) is kind of like a small business.

Kylee has a new cell number. Here it is: 765-631-2345 (yep.. she has a large straight in her number: 12345)
