Portuguese! PCBC! BHFM! Missions!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:51 pm  

Studied Portuguese this morning!

Keep on keeping on!

Streak continues. Go brain!

Still working on verbs.

Enjoyed briefing the team from Peachtree Corners Baptist Church this morning.

Took them on Safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

Then to the missions!




They are a very enthusiastic team. They’ve been a lot of fun already!

After getting them on site, I went back to the church to hook up my new wireless microphone system.

Didn’t take long, since they were basically exactly the same, just different frequencies. I had a mic go dead on me. For another $40 I could get the WHOLE SYSTEM replaced. So that’s what I decided to do.

I talked with two apartment managers about our situation with insurance. The price continues to escalate. Now it’s over $11,000/year! I have downsized the number of continuously running missions because of lack of volunteers from local churches. It’s been a very sad situation, but it’s out of my hands. I can’t force people to come help!

Because of that, it seems having insurance on just Azalea Place where Ashley and I work is overkill. I don’t see me expanding the network because I don’t anticipate churches suddenly deciding to start working in the immigrant community. I keep asking and keep getting denied. It’s very disturbing and sad.

We are focusing on the out of town teams now who seem to actually want to learn about doing missions.

I am happy to see a local church bring their youth group to come work with us. That’s a bright spot!

I went for a bike ride, but turned around when it looked like a thunderstorm was headed directly towards me. I had that experience and I barely made it home. It could have been really dangerous.

Admin duties now.
