We had a great time today hanging out with other partners!

I had some of our team get together to meet with Grant Haynes.\u00a0 He’s a missionary with Global Frontiers Missions working in Oaxaca, Mexico. He’s looking to relocate with part of his team to Atlanta and work with our international population here. Welcome aboard, Grant!

\nIan and Ruthie North, Bill Hickey, Toni Branyon, Bennett Ekandem, Kevin Riley, Ashley and Jesse and Grant and I talked about missions and our work around the community.\u00a0 It was a lively group and we had a ton of fun!\u00a0 I look foward to helping Grant get his group plugged in locally.\u00a0 He does a lot of training with indigenous leaders.\u00a0 I think that’s an element that would bring great value to our team.<\/p>\n

Ashley, Jesse and I went over to Perimeter Mall to the Apple Store.\u00a0 I needed to get a protective case for my new IPhone.\u00a0 It’s been fun to start learning all that it can do.<\/p>\n

We met Ian and Ruthie and Bill Hickey at Azalea at 4pm.\u00a0 My nephew Jason Sullivan is the volunteer coordinator for Chris Kids a local non-profit doing a great job with kids.\u00a0 They had some extra bikes and we enjoyed giving them to the kids at the missions.<\/p>\n

I focused on the ones that had been doing particularly well on their school work.\u00a0 But I also made them promise to share with their friends.\u00a0 They were SO happy.\u00a0 Thanks again, Jason!

\nWe helped the kids with their homework and writing Thank You notes for the bikes!

Jesse also taught some of the kids guitar.\u00a0 He got a small guitar so the kids could use it.\u00a0 They were rocking out!\u00a0 Jesse is really great with them.

\nStill mighty cold in Atlanta.\u00a0 It was 20 degrees this morning.\u00a0 Too cold to run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
