here kitty kitty...

spring time....

Man i just love spring. When the sun is shining and you can put away the winter coat! If you have a garden you can be outside and do gardening(that's my reason to never get a house). But some people seem to enjoy it. Nolan mentioned that he had been gardening the other day and i was reminded of a mission trip to portugal. Andy, man you looked like a boiled lubster after 6 hours in the sun. I sucks i don't have any photos from that trip, do you?

by the way...I hope ya'll have fun in Michigan without me!!

Tonight it's to be even Better!!!

Ryhman?

Did anyone know that Rachael had a kid? Tyler is his name!! wow! I had no ideA!!!!

***EDIT***
Here is part of the email she wrote:
However, after having a kid and getting married - this is the easiest way to keep in touch with family and friends. Plus, it's great in finding old friends - such as yourself! We're still in Aberdeen, SD. We wanted to stay here until after our son, Tyler, was born. It's sooo crazy that I have a son!!! Anyways, Jake was just recently credentialed with his license to preach and now is in the process of becoming the Youth Alive missionary for South Dakota. WE're excited for all of that to happen. We hope to go to Springfield for training in September, moving to Sioux Falls, and then itinerating for the next year and getting into the schools with the SEven Project. This process feels like it is going to take forever, but I know we need as much time as possible to prepare for what God has for us.

Seriously!!!

So... I asked Mars Hill if Rob would be speaking on the 20th, the Sunday everyone is here...
This lady tells me he is speaking every Sunday that month but that one!!! How in the world!!! So, we could still go up there, just not sure who is speaking!!! Dang it!

hey guys-
man i could really use your guys' prayers. i know this may seem like not that big of a deal to you guys, but i desperately need to find an apartment. I really can not live out with my parents any more. besides the fact that I'm just a 13-year-old who goes to college (it's how i often feel treated), i can't handle being so far from friends.
i know i'm a pretty independent guy, but i think it's a pretty crucial part of the christian faith to be in community. i have that community once a week and the rest, i'm pretty much on my own. i really want to find an apartment with a christian friend, but every person that i could possibly get a place with from church, it's always fallen through...
yeah, to make it short, i'm amazingly lonely... (feel a little bit vulnerable there...)
anyway, i would really like your prayers...
thanks
