Friday was a REALLY busy office day! Had to get everything done for our banquet the following night! I spent majority of my time printing and laminating. . . then Hannah and I went to the hotel to bring the decorations over.
CONFESSION: I definitely put up a Christmas tree and decorated it for the banquet! One week BEFORE Thanksgiving! I had no choice. . . but I must say - we did a FABULOUS job in decorating it! It was a beautiful tree :)
Friday night we went out on Street Reach. Amazing night once again! I couldn't believe the amount of people that were outside City Hall! I spent the night hanging out with several of my girls! What fun we had!
Saturday was Adopt-a-Block. We had it an hour earlier but still a lot of families were awake due to the nice weather. I got to meet about 8 kids which was great! Plus visit with several of our regular families.
Abigail came over after and we hung out for a bit and then got ready for the banquet. The banquet that night was a lot of fun! We had almost 80 people there so a decent turn out. So glad it's all over now though - it was alot of work!

Today was a great day! We had a guest speaker for church this morning that REALLY ministered to me. Sue made lunch and Allison and her dad came over. Had the fire going and I took a Sunday nap before getting ready for church tonight. A different sort of service tonight - but still good. Came home after and got the fire going again while we watched a movie and had some coffee and teacakes. Mmmmm :)
Just got off the phone with one of my girls. We talked about God and being a Christian. Please keep her in your prayers as God continues to reveal Himself to her as she contemplates the biggest decision of her life!
Things are definitely moving forward over here - but Satan's attacks are that much greater! Like unbelievably massive! Please keep the whole church in your prayers especially those in leadership as that seems to be where the biggest hits are. We hold fast to the knowledge that Christ has already overcome the world - therefore we are MORE than conquerors in Christ!
I have the day off tomorrow - but by the sound of the rain storm happening outside right now I'm not quite sure what I'll be doing! Still it'll be nice to have it off.
Hope all is well!
23 more days until I'm back in the States!
Where has the time gone??
