Heading Home

I was able to access the hotel's internet service for a few minutes so I thought I would take a few moments to let everyone know that Cindy and I are doing OK. We are tired, but doing well. We head home this afternoon and plan on being back in Portland Monday afternoon - providing nothing goes wrong with our flights. We had a great trip over and have had an exciting time serving alongside our co-laborers in Christ. Cindy took some wonderful pictures and video of our time here. I'm sure we will be sharing them. We are looking forward to getting back, sleeping in our own bed and hanging with Lucy & Dot. I will write about our trip some more when we get back home and share some of the God-moments we encountered while ministering in Tanzania. Thank you, all, who have been praying for us. We could feel your prayers and appreciate them very much. Mike

Only in Texas, Baby!

Got an email from a friend in Texas about an event coming to Lufkin, Texas. I was on staff at Carpenter's Way Baptist Church in Lufkin for 5 years. Yes, this is the promo picture from Evangelism Tickets ' web site promoting the event at the Expo Center. The event will feature concerts by the Robbie Seay Band and FFH . Both are great bands. I would love to be there for this one, folks. If you live anywhere in the area. . .GO! For more information and where to buy tickets click the picture. I love the fact that we, Texans, can take a cultural event like tractor pulling and use it for Jesus!

Some People Just Get It!

Was checking out my friend Gene Wilke's blog and ran across this little ditty. . . The writer shared how Roger Staubauch switched seats with an injured, returning soldier. . .not once, but twice in the same flight, giving up his first class seat for their seat further back on the plane. Like I said, some people just get it. Thank you Mr. Staubauch for setting the example for all of us on how to treat our men & women of the military. With a grateful heart and tons of respect, Mike

If you're looking to get me something for. . . .

If you have ever wondered what you could get me for my birthday, Christmas, or just because you like me I have a suggestion It's a Strand Craft 122 - a yacht that comes with a matching, hand-crafted, turbo-charged V-12, 880 hp car. The only way to get one of these cars is to buy the boat. Go figure. And it's all available for the low, low price of $25 Million. So, if you thinking ahead for Christmas or birthday, now might be a good time to start saving those pennies! Mike
