OK....I have to say once again that I am sorry for the delay in the updates. This one goes beyond my control though. My computer died! The screen went bad and I wound up today having to buy a completely new laptop. My other one was close to 5 years old so I knew the time was coming. I just did not know it would be this week!
Changing computers is a big deal when you run a ministry like ours. There are hundreds of files to back-up and place on the new unit. I have been doing that all day. I went to church Wednesday and when I came home I was right back at it. As I type this now I have files downloading on the old computer (it works but the screen is broken) and I have been loading all the new software on the new computer. Lots of fun.
We will be very busy this weekend. We have 5 meetings. Thursday (today) we have to be in Sturgis for a noon concert. Friday night in Fenton, Saturday up in Lovells, and 2 services in Columbus on Sunday.
Pray for us this weekend. I feel fine but my voice is still weak from being sick. My vocal chords are very tired. Andrea is right in the midst of the whole sinus, cold that I had all last week. She did not hardly move off the couch today. Funny thing about her , is that her voice is rarely affected by being sick. In the 8 years we have been singing together, she has not had 2 concerts where her voice was affected from a cold. We are hoping that proves to be the case again this week!
I filled up the van today......$3.89 a gallon. We need to get a higher milage vehicle soon. We have the "special request" link up at the top pf this page to tell you more about that. We are probably going to look at a different vehicle now. We are looking at a KIA Rondo that gets 29 miles to the gallon. We are spending hundreds in gas each week......yes HUNDREDS.....and that must change soon.
Be sure and get your greater vision tickets soon. The concert is next week!
