Life Update... Again!

So... I have a job! :D I'll be working as a cashier at Target on Monroe Street. Kinda excited-- not for the work, necessarily, but to be earning money and using my time productively instead of having nothing to do. And new experiences are fun. :) Usually.

Easter in the new center was great. :D Everything was done very well-- praise and worship was great (as usual-- way to set the bar high, Johnny!), the message was good, special song, and communion-- which I miss... we used to do it quarterly at DBC, but... well, I can't even REMEMBER the last time we had communion there. It'd been over a year, to say the least! anyway, tangent-- communion was a very solemn, yet joyful time. I enjoyed seeing everyone and being able to celebrate the Risen Christ with my Toledo family. I love you guys, so much! [/end sappiness]

Student Night was also successful. It was a little lengthy, and dinner was a bit crowded and unorganized... but... well, trial-and-error! I was especially impressed that we had so many new faces among the testimony sharers! :D Kati did a great job with the message, and I was very proud of both the message itself and the confidence and spirit with which she delivered it. Keep up the good work, Kati-- I am so blessed to be your friend and be able to watch you grow in Christ! (Okay, so I lied about the sappiness being over with... but I'm done now, I swear!)

Will be doing praise and worship tomorrow and the following two Sundays, so... lots of practice to look forward to (especially being there an hour earlier than I'm used to... yuck! Ha ha... man, I really have become spoiled!). I'm curious to see how this stewardship series of messages turns out, too... Guess we'll see tomorrow!

Also... lunch at the Parks' for M. Peter's birthday celebration... Heck yeah.
