Long time no blog

So here I am not doing a very good job of keeping this thing updated.... I will try harder, I promise. So much has taken place in the last few weeks.

Let's see:
  • I can now not only see all of the floor of my office I can now see the top of my desk. What a feeling it is to have a fresh start!

  • last weekend I went to lead a Youth mission in Blackville NB. I had never been to this part of the province so it was a new experience. I should of known when we walked into the hall and it was warmer outside than in we were in for trouble! The furnace wasn't working right but they did get it going but we all thought the gas fumes were going to drive us out. Then, on top of that was possibility the worst pizza I have ever had, the night didn't start off well. We went over to the Church to have an opening worship service. The first band that played was really heavy and it did not go over well. I know that the Priest there was very upset about the music. The rest of the night was a worship band made up of mostly youths and they did an amazing job. People have to understand that the music of today's youth culture is an ever changing organism. Things that appealed to one generation is not going to draw the next in and visa versa. Why can't people be open to the concept that God can speak to people through all sorts of music. I am very diverse in what I like. People are very surprised in the types of music I say I like. The next day we all felt like we were walking on eggshells because of some of the things that had happened the night before. But the day went well. I think that we accomplished our goal of encouraging the youth to look to Jesus instead of drugs. I understand that drugs are a real problem in that area among the youth. I guess when you have nothing else to do for entertainment getting high seems like a good option.
  • I am about to embark on a 3 day shopping trip. I am looking forward to just having a change.
  • I think that might be it for now. When I can figure out how to post pictures I will get some on here.
