What has been going on since August 7th

School is in session. My new 7th Graders are great! They are so full of energy. I don't know if I can keep up with them. I love that they laugh at my jokes. Nobody else does! Ha! Anyway, School has started and I have hit the ground running. I had about 45 youth ministers to attend a luncheon on our campus to show them appreciation. This was a major project that has not been done and turend out to be successful. We invited 75 and got 45 for a first year effort this is pretty good. I acted as the MC and felt like I was at a comedy club. One lady had been in the ministy for 29 years. I asked her out in front of everyone. She was married! I didn't care, I told her at this point for me bring her husband! Everyone just laughed and had a great time. Things are still going sooo fast here lately. It was announced last sunday that I would be leaving East Cobb and attending North Atlanta where a good friend of mine preaches Don Mclauglin. I will be leading their this sunday. Please pray that all will go well. I know God is with me, and I love letting him know others are praying as well for Sunday to go well. All I want to do is worship, but I am sure satan will try to show up and I hope we will defeat him. Anyway, I will tell you more about this later. I am trying to buy a wii system for my office. Those that might not know it is a video game system. I have big plans for it Friday for Chapel. I am not having much luck finding one right now. Those who are still with me- the 42 year old is still trying to call me! What do I do besides find her a husband. ( I know be quiet Terry- What we you do if you were me? NO I will not marry her) Anyway, I hope with my move to North Atlanta that I will listen to God as I get involved there! Well, more later! Let God shine on you wherever you are. ( I include the 42 year old as well! Ha!)

Great Time on my trip!

I have a wonderful time this past week travelling in Oklahoma, Texas(Hot), and Arkansas(Hotter). I got to visit with friends who are very special to me. I ate with those that I could: Vernon and Ann, Roxie and Brent, KT and Jimmy, Nathan, Chris, Liz, and Jeremy( a hoot, you all need to meet Jeremy- He is growing to me one incredible young man- Liz and Chris- you will make it- If not I come to at least your trial- Hahaha), Layne and Kristy,Clinton and Belinda, and Brittany, and, kent and cara!

It was wonderful and tiring. I travelled over 1500 miles driving, and flew about 1500 miles round trip. It was great!

Those who know me well know that I enjoy taking people out to lunch. A good and bad habit. When I was a full time minister- it was great! Church paid for it! Now, I still enjoy a great meal with good company. I love that I have been blessed in this way. I also love when friends undersstand that about me. Many people took me out to dinner during my early years. I thought that was awesome, and now I get the chance as well. It really has become a hobby of mine!

2nd day of preplanning! Wow! I can't wait till the kids arrive. I will write more, but wanted to let you know how great my trip was. Have a blessed day!
