Fun day today!

Now that I think about it, nearly ALL my days are fun! PTL, baby!

Santi Gahatay is a great missionary from Bhutan who helped church planters when he was a refugee in Nepal.  I had a meeting with him and a great business partner Chuck Vogt today.  We enjoyed listening to Chuck’s journey and how he thought Santi could fit into the team.  Chuck runs Metro Lawn service in Atlanta.

His ministry is to help people start their own buisness.  I have a heart for refugees and the refugee pastors in particular.  Many of them end of working at the chicken factories in Gainesville. Not exactly the best job.  Hard on pastors because of the length of travel job to get there and the hours are really tough.  My prayer is that God will bless Chuck’s business so they can be in expansion mode and add Santi and then help him start his own business so he can employ other pastors.  Pray for that!

We also met two new partners who have a food ministry called Great Food For All.

Steve Traylor and David Purvis are filling a gap that Angel Food ministries has left behind.  Check out their web site at greatfoodforall.com. They were meeting with my partner Bennett Ekandem in Clarkston.

It was also fun to see Bayo Otiti from Nigeria! My brother Bennett Ekandem, the director of the mission at Willow Branch, is also from Nigeria.

He came to Clarkston to help the kids and talk with us.  I was hoping to get Bayo a computer from my office, but the two I had didn’t work.  Neither of them would power up.  Weird.  So we went by Clatie Lewis’ house to take him the bad ones and see if he could get us another one from the ministry that he works with:  Reboot.

We went by Azalea to check on the kids.  They really don’t have any homework any more.

Seems like the whole school just coasts after the standardized tests are completed.

Bennett gave me a bunch of candy from the mission at Willow Branch. We had fun throwing the kids the candy.

  Ian and Ruthie North and Cathy Wilson and her daughter Leah also go it on the fun!  Excellent.

Came home and worked out on weights.

Spent good time with the kids and Kathy this evening.  Jesse plays great guitar and Ashley has been playing too.  It’s like a dream come true for me!  Everybody jammin’ together.  Even Kathy was singing!  Uber!

Still need to go through the bills from the office, then I can relax.

Peace!
