New Home

Well, we are finally moved in; moved it all in a couple hours on Friday. And what did I do on my first night of owning my own home... I slept somewhere else. I left after we moved it all in to take the youth from my church to Camp Stella Maris on Conesus Lake for our winter retreat, where our theme was "G.reat O.ut D.oors"- Isnt that clever... (the kids came up with it.) We learned about Creation Care... it was a good time and the kids seemed to enjoy themselves. Beautiful location and facility. I will soon post on the new home and our progress there. Love being a home owner!

"You Are Our First Love"

This is a pic I took a couple years ago, and today was listening to a song by Michael Olson called "First Love."
Here are some words:
"Have we grown so numb, that we've forgotten where we're from?
How far away have we run from our first love?
We have sight but do not see.
Our ears fail to hear you speak.
Wake us from our restless sleep to our first love.
You are our first love, you are, our first love.
So draw us closer, ever closer Lord.
You'll be our last love, you will be our last love.
So draw us closer, ever closer Lord..."
