Archives For January 2008

Jess and I are settled into our room here at the Three Bears Lodge in Warrens, WI for two nights/three days of Pastors & Mates Retreating!

This place is incredible! We haven’t yet enjoyed the indoor waterpark, but will get to that tomorrow. We’re enjoying getting to know other district pastors and spouses as well as spending some time just as husband and wife! Thanks to Mom & Dad Garrett who are currently house-and-baby sitting back in Mukwonago! What a gift they’ve given us to be just us for these couple of days!

We already miss Ella. Jess said something tonight that was an “Ella-ism” and we both gave each other “Ella-eyes” at the reminder that we didn’t have her joyfulness with us here! This is our first time away from her overnight together and Jess’ first night away from her – ever – in her 21-months of life!

David Holdren is sharing in the ‘general sessions’ tomorrow. Looking forward to the challenges he brings to us.

My lappy monitor gets very dusty by being open more hours in a day than closed. I have a sweet micro-fiber cloth that I use to clean it, but when I can’t find that cloth this website helps too.

Finally!

Heritage.

I’m proud of my heritage.

This morning I popped in the CDROM from the General Secretary’s office at Wesleyan Headquarters. Of course I browsed through the “ministers directory” to check and make sure my information was correct. I was reminded of my heritage when I read through the three Sheets included in the directory. In order: my Grandfather – Jim; my Father – Paul; and me! What a Godly heritage I am so proud to be following!

Love you Grandpa and Dad!
