The Journey Begins

Well, today was my last church service at my church, The Grace Place Community Church, before I leave next Saturday morning. It was a lot more difficult than I was anticipating. Joe surprised us and had my family and I as the main prayer object this morning. Anyone from the group that wanted to pray for us could come up and pray with us. It was a very special time, and it meant a lot to Tonya and I. You loose touch with how much you love and care for people until you feel like they are not going to be in your life for awhile. We had lunch with some old friends. And then we went to Jessica's house for a Student Team Leaders Meeting and some of the youth and some other couples were there and all yelled "surprised" when we walked in. It was pretty cool, they gave me a bag of gifts that they picked up for me. Of course they put notes on the gifts explaining why I might need them. It was very entertaining, for whatever reason I think that they believe that I have a problem with gas or something????? Today was a nice day. Oh and by the way, I don't have a GAS problem!!! That's Kris Barrett!!
