It's been a while since I've written
in this thing. Over two months have passed without me writing. I
thought I would catch you up on some things that have taken place in my
life over the past few months, and give you heads up on what to expect out
of me in the next few. I apologize for the bad grammar, I'm just putting
my thoughts.
My family hosted an orphan from Belarus for six
weeks this summer. It was a blessing to spend those weeks (well the one's
that I was actually home) with her. Her name was Olga and she was
nine years old. It was amazing to see her reaction with the
technology and the 'junk' that we have here in America. She was
amazed by the television and would sit and watch Disney movies all night
long. Despite the fact she couldn't speak much English, and the fact
I know little Russian......we communicated fine. If she was to stay for 2
more weeks she would have been speaking English fluently. I await her
arrival again next year.
On the music end of things I was very busy traveling
all summer. It was great meeting a lot of new people and it's great that I
am able to keep in touch with them. There are new pictures up from
some of my travels over the summer.
Okay, so the big news.....this is the first public
announcement of this online...so feel honored. The Get Real Worship
Rally is now based under KOG (Kingdom of God) Ministries. It's been
really exciting how God has blessed us over this past summer. It all
started when we planned the rally, and how it was going to work this
coming year. We've put together a worship band and we're touring this year
around the area twice a month. We've purchased a mega sound system,
digital soundboard, a total of 2000 watts......it's very sweet!
So with that planned, we were pursued by a local
church who was going to build a new facility on some empty land. They felt
led not to build a church, but to build a youth center built. Greg,
Stephen, and I have talked about the idea of building one in the
community. Well they contacted them about running it and all that
cool stuff. So the new $2.5 million youth center will be ran by KOG
Ministries.
A new website for the Rally, and KOG Ministries will
be up soon. It will discuss more in depth what we're doing. But this
was just a little preview. I'm off to grab a bite to eat. As always, many
blessings!
