Back in Seattle there is so much to do - people to see (some for the first time in 08), last-minute curriculum changes, the September newsletter AND "The Pack". I'm sure I didn't buy much...but there's certainly more than I arrived with! There's much to be thankful for this summer: time with family and friends, great responses from the kids we minister with, the beauty of this north-west corner of America, and the never changing satisfaction of knowing you are where you are supposed to be, ministering with a great friend and anointed ministry. Then there's the way we have been ministered to also - through churches large and small, fellowship with pastors and others who worship at the churches we visit. We hear God's voice in the encouragement we receive, in the way the children respond, in God's word as we prepare our messages, and through sermons when we occasionally have the opportunity to simply sit and enjoy. One great source of ministry to us is in the prayers of many of you who read this blog a(and Sue's), through phone calls, Skype chats, email and snail mail. Thank you! As I prepare to head for home to a new set of challenges, I look back at the US summer with thankfulness and fulfillment. Good times. [Photo: Payette River, Idaho]
