Monday Morning

Well Sunday was an awesome day of worship that actually started with me being at SPC at 6 AM for the load in for BridgePoint Church along with several other men and women. What a great group of volunteers who weekly help with putting on this service in hopes of helping folks get closer to GOD. Our attendance has nearly doubled in this last year with both services and several have committed to making this their church home and are now part of the volunteer team. WOW is this ever exciting and we are thrilled to have been part of the launch team for this campus in Seminole.

We worked both services but was able to attend the service once the music started and most everyone had entered. Tim our lead pastor is such a dynamic speaker and you hang on every word and are so shocked and some what disappointed when the 30-40 minutes message is complete. Our band is amazing as well with great vocalist. There is always fresh free donuts, coffee and bottled water each Sunday and the kiddos love their sweet delights as do most of the attendees. We are looking seriously for a building we can call home and stop these weekly load in's and load out's in the Seminole area.

We got back to the house around 12:30 and had a fresh garden with a grilled chicken breast on top for lunch which held us the rest of the day except for some pop corn done the old fashion way around 6'ish. Nancy took off to do some shopping while I vegetated on the couch watching the Ray's sweep the Twins for their first of the season. The bats finally came to life for the Ray's and while their pitching is not the best they managed to win three in a row. We then tuned into an old movie title Spaceship Cowboys which had some big name male actors; Eastwood, Garner, Jones and Sutherland in a some what far fetched story about these over the hill astronauts who went into space after being retired.

We watched the Civil story on Stonewall Jackson and how he was a hero to the South and was winning the war until he was shot by his own sentries during a night time mission and eventually died from complications and then the South went on and lost the war. It was very interesting and I learned a ton about his character, love of family and his deep faith and what he meant to Gen. Lee in the cause of the war effort. He had a brilliant mind when it came to war strategy.

I hit the showers around 9'ish and watched the Nashville hockey team annihilate the Colorado team which is probably who the Lightning will play next in the run to the Stanley Cup and at 10 turned in for the night, LATER
