Monday after Sunday Random Thoughts

I will have to say that yesterday (Sunday) was an awesome day!  Here’s why:

• We had baptism yesterday and saw 3 people baptized at the early service and 3 at the late service! 
• We heard some incredible stories when the baptism testimonies were read. 
• It was an unspeakable joy to baptize my two oldest children.  Josiah (10), and Abigail (7) were baptized yesterday morning.  It was all I could do to compose myself! 
• I love having my extended family at CATGrove!  My mother, brother and sister-in-law, and Jill’s parents were there!  My cousin Melinda has been attending regularly, and it was awesome to have her there yesterday.  My niece Meg was there! 
• Tons of guest there yesterday!  That is one thing I love about baptism! 
• Yesterday’s message was an absolute joy to give.  I love talking about God’s mercy made available to everyone regardless of what they have done in their past.  The key ingredient that we talked about yesterday was HUMILITY! 
• Ric and the band were awesome!  The songs were perfect for the day.  The sound mix has been great every week for the past few months.  I am so thankful for those guys that make it happen on Sundays. 
• Thanks to Craig and Sandy for all their work to make baptism happen! 
• Chad Spinks is the man!  He oversees all of our set up and breakdown for Sundays and yesterday we had some people out and Chad stepped up big time and made it happen.  Thanks Chad!
• We had an eternal day on the soccer field Saturday.  Abigail played 3 games.  Josiah played 4 games.  It made for a long day and a severe sunburn, but I loved hanging out with the parents and simply getting to know people. 
• Soccer season is over!
• C-3 class last night at Craig and Amy’s house.  I loved hanging out with my friend Lee………even if he IS a Florida gator fan.
• I passed out last night after a busy week!
