As I looked at my schedule for the next couple of weeks I thought, “Maybe I should take the day off.”\u00a0 Yeah, right.\u00a0 Lots of days in a row . . .<\/p>\n

I started out visiting with friends at FBC Mountain Park.\u00a0 We’re getting the date organized for October 19th when Keith and Cornelia Harrell and Ashley get commissioned.\u00a0 I think that will be super cool!<\/p>\n

Enjoyed sharing what’s going on with Jerry Clower and Kevin Lamb–two staff members at our church.<\/p>\n

Touched base with the Kroger folks again to make sure they’ll have everything ready for us to pick up this Thursday.\u00a0 They wanted to know if we wanted these super big bags of charcoal.\u00a0 We could split them in half and save a little money.\u00a0 Any of you guys deal with charcoal?\u00a0 Last thing I want to do is to start splitting up those messy bags!\u00a0 Everything looks to be sitting on dead ready.\u00a0 I’ll keep going over there, just in case.<\/p>\n

Our board at Whirlwind Mission is committed to supporting our missionaries as well as extreme needs.\u00a0 We’ve been working with Pastor Jeff from Haiti for about 6 months now.
\n\"j\"
\nLast month the same hurricane that messed up Atlanta’s gas totally wrecked Haiti.\u00a0 It could be years (if ever) before the infrastructure of bridges gets rebuilt.\u00a0 People are really starving and facing terrible water borne diseases.\u00a0 I’m glad we could help out financially, thanks to YOU!<\/p>\n

Jeff seems interested in coming back to working with us in the States with NAMB.\u00a0 I’ll help him get that process in order.\u00a0 He’s already served with NAMB so he only needs a new request.\u00a0 I took him over to a couple of apartment complexes where we have work in the area and introduced him to the managers.\u00a0 He seems excited about this new direction.\u00a0 Of course he’ll continue to return to Haiti from time to time to help with the churches and schools that he’s started.<\/p>\n

Remember when Ashley and I had a video shoot with NAMB?
\n\"h\"
\nToday I went over to Grace Fellowships (one of my favorites!) for some help.
\n\"g\"
\nErik McNair is on their video team.
\n\"e\"
\nThey’ll help dub off the video into a format that we can edit on our computers.\u00a0 I’m looking forward to working on that project once we have the video!<\/p>\n

This afternoon after I got home I had a chance to walk around in the forest a bit.\u00a0 One of my new interests is in mushrooms.\u00a0 I’m reading a really great book called “Mycellium Running.”
\n\"m\"Sounds to me like fungi can fix just about every problem we have ecologically!
\n\"m2\"
\nThere are strains of mushrooms that actually eat oil and convert it to natural substances that other animals can feed on. That’s great news for areas with toxic spills!

God is so cool to invent all this stuff!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
