I love cute little turtles and long moonlit walks in Wal-Mart’s parking lot listening to ABBA on my portable 8 track tape player. I live with this cute chick named Mindy who has three great kids…Kurt, Lindsey, and Emma. I live in the metropolis of Kenosha (pretty impressive I know). I have dreams to become a famous belly-dancer in Vegas…but I know this dream is very ambitious.
Plus, I am the Senior Associate Pastor at a great church in Winthrop Harbor IL, North Point Christian Church.
We got your material on the new plant and were thrilled for you. I wish we were in a position to be able to help you. A few years ago, our congregation talked about taking a segment of willing people and planting a work in the area but ultimately decided to build a 1650 seat, multi-million $ worship center to seat our 2000 people so we could continue to offer a smorgesbord of programs. We went from six moderate-sized services and three Sunday School hours to two services and two Sunday Schools. As far as I’m concerned, you made the better choice.
Uncle Stephen and Aunt Shanthi made in home, although we haven’t seen them yet. We went to Lincoln last weekend for their Harvest of Talents and had a great time.
We are all reasonably fine (in a manner of speaking). Clifton-Paul got a mild concussion at last night’s football game but is alright, and James is very slowly starting to recover from a broken sternum–yes, that’s sternum, not ribs. He goes back for follow-up on the 4th. We are praying that there is evidence of healing, or he may be looking at surgery to wire it together. The rod in Uncle Dick’s leg most likely “broke,” as he is having a lot of pain with it and complains of it “sliding around” when he walks on it…I “suggested” he get a cane or crutch in his hand (not that I expect him to do it). That’s probably all the news for the moment, and I’m terrible about writing, so you probably need to set it aside for a month and then pull it out for one more glance. MERRY CHRISTMAS!! We love you all.
