Today at Target.com I found this:

It was $59 with free shipping AND on top of that, I got a 10% discount code AND we still had three Target giftcard. We won’t know exactly how much we had to pay until it ships!

Cool, huh?!

Had a great Youth Cabinet meeting this evening down in Marion. Usually it’s an all-business meeting.

Not tonight.

Tonight we actually had time to chat together about how our lives and ministries are going. I appreciate those guys on that board SO much!

In observance of Lent, starting tomorrow Stevan Sheets will be fasting from all carbonated beverages until Good Friday.

There, I made a public statement – hold me accountable!

(and still send me your PEPSI cap codes for iTunes!)

This morning from 8 until a little after 11, I was going through 4 huge storage trunks full of magic tricks. These four trunks were owned by Brother Bill Larned – a man that attended Warsaw Wesleyan Church and a man that I had the joy of getting to know in my first two years here at WWC until he passed away.

Mr. Larned was a minister in the Salvation Army and part of his ministry was Gospel Magic.

While he was still living, we would talk about his “magic days” and he would tell me how he wanted to go through his magic again and give me whatever I would find use for. I never got that chance while he was living.

His daughter, Judy and her husband Paul still attend our church and today Paul and I went through those four trunks. It was amazing.

I saw tricks today that I’ve never seen in my life. I also saw tricks that I had seen dozens of times. I was able to salvage an entire trunk-full of magic that I will now add to MY collection of tricks!

What an amazing gift!

Today here at church the wallpaper has started going up! The foyer looks absolutely amazing with the new wallpaper and the oak. I can’t wait to see it completely finished!

Bible study tonight at Helfrich’s. Looking forward to that.

Blood donation tomorrow. Hurray for me!

Tonight’s Super Bowl Party at the church was a HUGE success!

Even though the wrong team took home the championship trophy, it was still an absolute blast.

With 80+ people watching the game on a 14.5 x 10-foot screen, eating all the food we could fit in our mouths, drinking more soda and sports drinks than anyone should, and with a chance to win one of about 50-food prizes, you would call such an event a success, too.

I’m tired. It’s after eleven and I want nothing more than to sleep off the loss of the Philly Eagles and wake up to a new morning tomorrow.
