Snice Day

Is it snow? Or is it ice? Can't really tell so we're calling it snice!

We were awakened way too early by Kelsey screaming "IT SNOWED LAST NIGHT!" So much for sleeping in on this cold winter morning.

So we did what any normal family would do...we got dressed up and hopped in the truck to go sliding around on icy roads!

Here's a great video we made of Garren on the sled:

I have come across a few good posts lately. Rather than try and recreate the thoughts here - why don't you check them out?

They made me think - what about you?

Sunday @ Southbrook Monroe 12.20.09

What a wonderful and refreshing time we had as a church yesterday! Here are the highlights:

• The Student Band led worship - and did an amazing job! God moved in people's hearts. I can't wait to have them back for our Christmas Eve service.

• The elementary children enjoyed their first Sunday in the newly opened children's wing. What a blessing! After months of raising funds, volunteer work days, and a lot of work done by Dane, Joe and many others, we were able to finally start using the new space.

• Pastor Rob reminded us once again of the true meaning of Christmas. Emmanuel - God is with us. Not "was with us" or "will be with us." God is with us, right here, right now.

• I continue to be amazed and simply blown away by the hearts for serving at Southbrook Monroe. There is a true desire to reach out to the community and love people with the love of Jesus.

I am truly looking forward to an amazing Christmas Eve service. It starts at 3:30pm. Come on out as we celebrate the birth of our savior together.
