Life in the Big Potato

Here are some images from our trip back home during Thanksgiving. Actually we went to Birmingham, Houston, and Hattiesburg. That sweet tea didn't stand a chance. We helped decorate Sue and Floyd's Christmas tree. I still think it needs more color. Emma and I are trying out for the next L.L. Bean catalog. Here the younger folks are discussing how things have changed since we were kids. This was supposed to be a leaf pile, but it is actually a stack of pine needles. Sandy didn't care. She did get a little sappy. This is probably right before the second half of the Fenton bowl. Jerry's team makes their game plan The Fenton boys have now taken up rocketry. This is the first attempt at hydrogen fuel for energy. Thanks to our families for feeding us and encouraging us this Thanksgiving. We love you!

Join with us in prayer this Fall - That our relationships with the youth would continue to grow into discipleship relationships - That our church would be moved to be body of passionate prayer, gleeful giving, and sacrificial service. - That our focus will be Christ alone. - That our life groups would be vibrant. - That our staff will be unified. - Pray for the UISBC (Utah/ Idaho Southern Baptist Convention). There are many churches dealing with conflict and bitter spirits. Pray for them to be humbled and for peace and unity to reign. - Pray as we begin to prepare for our trip to East Asia in the Spring that God would prepare the hearts of the college students we will meet.

my pop-in-law sent this to me ... Remember.... The will of God will never take you... Where the grace of God cannot keep you Where the arms of God cannot support you Where the riches of God cannot supply your needs Where the power of God cannot endow you. The will of God will never take you... Where the spirit of God cannot work through you Where the wisdom of God cannot teach you Where the army of God cannot protect you Where the hands of God cannot mold you. The will of God will never take you... Where the love of God cannot enfold you Where the mercy of God cannot sustain you Where the peace of God cannot calm your fears Where the authority of God cannot overrule for you. The will of God will never take you... Where the comfort of God cannot dry your tears Where the Word of God cannot feed you Where the miracles of God cannot be done for you Where the omnipresence of God cannot find you.
