I got to Marion safe and sound this morning, stopped at Tree of Life coffee shop/bookstore for a morning-chai and headed to Jonesboro for theADVANCE.
After spending too long trying to hook up a desktop computer to the wireless network and FINALLY being successful, we all headed out for our first “fun” time of the day.
What did we do?
First we went bowling. Good times. I broke 100 on both games. Barely, bust still, broke 100!
After bowling, we headed to lunch at East of Chicago Pizza.
After lunch it was off to shoot guns in someone’s field at poor, innocent clay pigeons! Good times there, too!
After skeet-shooting we headed back to Jonesboro for a bit before heading to IWU for supper and the “IWU-pitch”. Now we’re chilling at JC Bodyshop and in a couple hours we’ll have our first session with Rev. Ken Kline.
I got to spend some good quality time with Ken on the trip from Jonesboro to IWU as he rode with me. It’s always good to get an outsiders perspective on ministry. Ken is the pastor at Mt. Zion Wesleyan Church in North Carolina.
After tonight’s session, I will head back home (1.5 hours) and then sleep for a couple hours and head right back for another session tomorrow morning @ 9AM. Jess will be joining me tomorrow.
Of course I’ve been snapping pictures every few minutes and will post those when time allows (and/or when I remember to bring my USB cord and a fresh battery with me!)
