Easter Outreach!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:28 pm  

Woke up with my favorite bird tapping on the tree outside my window. Awesome!

Pileated Woodpecker. About the size of a crow!

Heavy rain last night. About 1 1/4″. Excellent!
r

Worked till about 1am last night. Finished up my bi-weekly financial report. Turned that into my treasurer this morning.

Took Jesse out to eat for breakfast. Can you tell where we went?

Ashley is working with Foothills Community Church this weekend. She took a team from there around the International Village this morning. I took her to eat lunch to Penang Restaurant. I was still full of waffles.

She loved the mango smoothie.

I liked the signage on this box.

Never too much Ashley!

We met up with the group from 12 Stone church who has been helping us at our missions in Chamblee. Terrific group!

Had a fun day today with my kids at Azalea!

Jesse and Ashley helped me with the outreach. Don’t get no better!

We tossed eggs. Collected eggs. Tossed eggs. Collected eggs. Little kids tossed eggs, collected eggs. Big kids tossed eggs, collected eggs.

You get the drift. We really don’t “hide” eggs per se. Just run around picking them up!

Then I gathered everyone up and shared the story of Easter and why Jesus had to come and die for us to take away our sins.
k
Many of the kids prayed along with me as we talked to Jesus and thanked Him for what he’d done for us!
f
The Muslim mothers seemed a bit uncomfortable with what I was saying, but overall seemed to have an good attitude about it. Thanks for your prayers for that!

We went to a “My Favorite Place” which is a flea market in Chamblee today. I got a really cool globe which is solid and has inlaid stones marking each country. An amazing antique!

Looked like Santa had too much egg nog!
s

I picked up a couple of pictures from the late 1890’s for $1!

Jesse picked up a framed Egyptian art piece that is handpainted on papyrus paper. Groovy!
j
Fortunately, I wasn’t too sore from the wood chip pile hauling yesterday! Of course we only did about 10% of it!

Kathy and I are going to visit Savannah/Tybee Island for a few days. Sure am glad to get to spend some extra time with her! I’ve learned I have to take a break whenever work slows down. It doesn’t stay like that for long!

Great day!

I liked this. I think I’m this to a lot of people.

I could also be the cause.
