Notes from 4-17-08

Thanks to Matt, and his other brother Matt, for hosting and devotion today!

Congratulations to John Legg, Kim Uchimura and Armondo Rodriguez for approaching ordination. We will miss seeing you in this setting!

I am always uplifted by hearing your heartfelt joys and struggles and get excited by the way that you encourage and counsel each other.

In other news, Kim went to the 5 day Spiritual Formation Academy & recommends it highly. Dawn & Sharon went to the “Re-focus” training & Dawn thinks Forest Hills may do that. Sharon’s excited about her move. Jim Harnish told us about Sharon Austin, who will be our new District Superintendent. Matt, can you give a little more info on the speaker you had… I was so intrigued that I forgot to write it down! Anyway, Matt encourages anyone to take time to hear him if you get a chance!

We discussed our “every other month” schedule. Because we can spend more time together, we are going to maintain this schedule, with the understanding that attendance is even more critical because of “doubling up”.

The next meeting….. look at this schedule for Friday, May 30th at annual conference.

Would you like to meet from 2:00-5:00? I will try to find a close by, but comfortable place for us to meet.

Don’t forget to go to the

RIM BLOG and make a comment.

Make a “comment” to show me that you’ve visited!

If you have something to post… an idea for a topic…. Matt will put it up in lights for you!

We want to lift our brother, Mark Reynolds up in prayer, as he is facing some struggles. We love ya, Mark!
