My Bud's Ticker

My Bud went in for a procedure today. Had a little clog in the pipes restricting blood flow. They got him fixed up and on the mend.
I'm reminded from this day of what a great God we serve. He loves and protects us. He takes such good care and is always faithful.
I'm also very appreciative of the family and friends we have. The people that mean so much. They care and come through in times such as this.
My Bud is my brother. My dad and his brother referred to each other this way.
Until next time ...

Sturgis 2008

I traveled by plane to Sturgis SD for 6 days this month. It was the annual Sturgis Bike Week event. The little town of 6,500 people swells to about 500,000 for this event. It presents a great opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus. I teamed with many people from across the nation to partner with Dakota Baptist Convention & Ronnie Hill Evangelism. We gave away a 105th anniversary model of the 2008 Harley Davidson Deluxe.
I had the privilege of sharing with hundreds and leading many to salvation. I met so many people (co-workers) on this trip and through our work together I learned many things about myself. Other things I already suspected were confirmed for me too. I have found something I love and it just works for me. I enjoy this season and hope it continues. With each event I do, I find that as I give, I am blessed and learn more about my relationship with God.

My next trip is to Nicaragua again in October. I have watched Voice of Hope Ministries calendar and a couple of churches from VA and AR are going. Another person from GA that I met on my previous trip is going too. I will meet up with them and serve again. I am really looking forward to it.

the card arrives

My son Clint gets to vote this year. He pays close attention to the politics going on around us and is eager to do his part. His voter card came a while back. Way to go Clint!
