What a State

Good afternoon from Lincoln! Friends and acquaintences often shake their heads in amazement that anyone would want to live in Nebraska or even claim to be from the state! But hey, where else would local television stations pre-empt normal broadcasting to present a press conference introducing the new Interim Athletic Director at the University of Nebraska? That is very cool and just one of the things that makes Nebraska a great place to live and claim! Why is that cool? I don't know, it just is! OK on to other stuff...

So now we are bloggers. Our kids told me that was a good thing. I will have to believe them since I have only read about 2 blogs in my lifetime. But I did see on Fox News that millions and millions of people around the world regularly read blogs, so...we shall see how many of those million touch base with this Awesome Bloggom! (Get it, like Awesome Blossom only Awesome Bloggom?)

God continues to move us forward toward a January return to the field: We are at nearly 85% of our required support; we are now asking God for 300 prayer partners and are on the way to that number; God has raised up nearly 45% of our outgoing expenses which include airline tickets, major appliances, shipping of our goods back to the field, and a car. In fact, our greatest need for the outgoing expense is funds for a car.

Would you please commit to earnestly pray that God will continue to raise up the support partners, funds for the car, and additional prayer partners? Thanks so much for doing this. And when you want to join us, please let us know that too and how you would like to join.

Well this is it from the state with the newly appointed Interim Athletic Director! Take care and keep praying and reading.
