Jude 2

since we have had some pretty back to back events at our local church, I haven't had much time to get the pictures posted on our website. Well, tonight I had a free moment and went back to the last 3 events that I had missed and went through all the pictures and made some sideshows as I am want to do for this kind of thing.

Our Midwest Region Men's retreat, fell on a holiday and during a time of Senior graduation parties, etc, so turnout wasn't as large as some previous years, but was a success, none the less.

Excitement filled the air all weekend and the presence of God was continuing. lots of new friends, and fellowship as well as some great classes and preaching services in the evenings.

Then we had our Annual church camp out. it was a bit rainy, but overall, it wasn't too bad. A great turnout and even more joined for church under the tent at the campgrounds on Sunday.

And then last week, we had our annual community appreciation day. no preaching, just fun and fellowship. we did, of course have church information available and it was all free to the community. The cotton candy was a big hit this year, and as normal, the hot dogs were eaten as fast as they could be grilled.

:) hehehehee - it was an extra one that he was giving to a church that wanted it, and he was just showing it. the last time I heard of anyone in my short time in the COGOP talk/teach/preach about the church flag, was when I did in passing when I was teaching a series on (some of) the names of God.

Great pictures!

They are great pictures. I was in no way making lite of it. Just curious. sometime ask your overseer about the carpet he found on the freway. God's provision.

I will ask him. turns out, though - they are leaving for Peru tomorrow. they are going to be going to several countries to teach some bible classes (CBL stuff, as I understand). so will have to wait till they get back.

My oldest son and granddaughter left Sunday for Lima, Peru. They will be there for one year. His wife will join him in about four months. She is working her vacation time, leave of absence to get off.

My son will be doing his field study and then will return to Riverside to work on his PHD thesis in Cultural Anthropology. He is almost done. My wife and I hope to visit them sometime during the year.

He has taught CA at a junior college for the past two years. He will be living mostly in Cusco at the base of Mancha Piacha. He has been approached by a small private college in Northern Ca. My concern is his wife is from Lima. I worry they may move there and live. Good for them but I will miss my granddaughter greatly.
