I really love going to the missions conference at Peachtree Corners BC.

I have SO many of my partners that go to the conference. Bennett and Idong Ekandem, Keith Harrell, Eduardo Zamora, Bayo Otiti, Carlos Salaverria, Matt and Ashley Johns. When I see all those guys together, I think of the history that I’ve had with these families. It’s a really happy time.

The service was great tonight. We spent about an hour in prayer with a small group of missionaries. Powerful stuff!

I really like the new pastor, Dr. Hayes. He had a terrific message on Jonah.

I’m working on Admin stuff and getting my gear together for the presentation tomorrow morning at PCBC.

There were snowflakes falling this evening!

I don’t like people that do this.

I enjoyed having Jesse as my wingman today, on our day “off.”

Big day today!

After nearly exactly 8 years I’ve finally been able to upgrade my video camera! I got wonderful use out of my old Handicam DCR-PC9. The whole Video Seminar on my website was shot with that camera.

This new one is the HDR-XR500V. Has a great lens and about TEN times the video quality of my old camera. I’m really looking forward to using it to share what’s going on in our work!

Jesse and I also went to the book store. I really like the Barnes and Noble in Lawrenceville.

I always look at books on Costa Rica.

But today I went to buy Seth Godin’s new book “Lynchpin.” I’m a big fan of his. And his blog is really good too, if you like marketing and business books.

This evening I went to Peachtree Corners Baptist Church. This is their mission conference weekend.

I believe this is the 13th of their conferences in a row that I’ve been to! Really is one of my favorite churches. Their new pastor seems really cool too!

I’m back at home now. Going through all my admin duties.

I did a lot this morning, too: All of my tax prep stuff. What a hassle.

Every January I redo my mailing list. Today I spent time making sure all the addresses were correct. Glad I got that done!

While at the book store, I saw this quote by Henry David Thoreau. We were born on the same day. July 12th. Along with Julius Caesar (the namesake of the month July) and Bill Cosby.

I liked this little bird nest.
