Take a little side trip...

Well... I don't always have the time to post on two blogs... let's be honest, I don't always have the time to breathe... or sleep... sleep especially... ahhh... I would LOVE a good nights' sleep... ohhhh... I digress...

Anyway, the youth of Sulphur Grove now have a blog. Little thing where I post info about our events or what we're having for dinner... you know... stuff like that...

SO. I have posted some pictures there from Winter Retreat at Camp Otterbein... I thought I could just put it here too, same post so I don't have to reload the pictures on my ridiculously slow little red laptop (just today it is slow... not sure what that's about!) but I can't actually figure out how to make that happen ... SO... long story short, you can check out pics at: Sulphur Grove Youth

Ahhh... back to work... hope this computer figures its little self out soon!!! yeah!!

19 days and counting (down!)

I am leaving for Antigua, Guatemala in 19 days. I am so excited I could BURST.

I am going to travel with Hope for Home, an organization from the Dayton area that works with orphanages in Guatemala. With the current freeze (with no end in sight) on international adoptions from Guatemala there are tons of kids in orphanages with little forward motion towards getting homes and families. SO... in a completely unexpected event... I am going to go to Guatemala for a week to hold babies. Seriously. I am also going to be checking out the possibilities of Sulphur Grove sending teams there and/or partnering in ministry with an orphanage.

SO. I am so excited I could scream... but since I am in the office and there are men working on the roof outside my window I won't... wouldn't want anyone doing a tumble!

YEAH!!
