To top it off, Josiah and I were able to play some baseball with some friends. Great day!

Big Sunday!
Sunday was huge. I was so encouraged by many things I saw in my church family yesterday. A friend that has been really down emotionally and physically was at church Sunday and was embraced and welcomed like family. Another friend (long time friend) came back to a worship service for a second time. I was encouraged to see people stepping out of their comfort zones to do new things. The students in our church had led a world hunger awareness hunger strike for 30 hours this weekend (30 hour famine). They raised $1052 for World Vision for hunger relief. We completed our month long offering for helping a church and a pastor friend in Jamaica. The total for this offering is not yet known. It was great to see the church of Jesus making a big impact globally and locally.
