Well, we received our summer assignment today, and I can’t lie and say I’m not a little disappointed. Carrie and I were hoping to spend the summer taking seminary-level classes in Colorado – it was a little bit for selfish reasons. I love Colorado.
We were supposed to get our assignment about a month ago, so I called last week to ask where we’d be going and was told that they were having problems filling spots where they needed people, particularly on Summer Projects. A lot of this is due to the CM07 event in South Korea – thousands of students gathering there for global mobilization to take the gospel everywhere. CM07 is taking a lot of campus staff there as well and is shorting a lot of the regional summer projects.
So, our assignment is – Ocean City Maryland! I did like OCMD last year, it was our second choice, and I still get to spend 10 days in Colorado for the National Staff conference. I’m praying and working towards being excited for Ocean City. It’s not there yet, but I’m sure it will grow!

It really feels like it’s been a long time since we’ve updated… I guess it has been since Christmas.
Christmas conference was great this year (as usual). If you want to get an idea of how great it was, check out the website for it (link), we’ve uploaded most of the seminars from the it on the “media” page, check a few of them out. Also, if you want to see pictures from it go to gallery.ChristmasConference.com.
This year I was running the light-board for the main sessions (there’s a picture in the “stage” photos section), which is kind of cool since my brother is a professional sound-guy. Carrie was working in the conference office guarding the computers and the information hub for everything.
The semester has started out… crazy. This week we are working about 6 days straight, and the same for next week. We love to see our students excel, but that tends to mean more work for us when they do. Pray for energy from the Lord that we can continue at this pace.
We’ve put out our newest prayer letter about what has been going on.
Also, keep us in your prayers as we look to move north to focus on the Erie-area schools. We are meeting with a bank tomorrow to see what sort of assistance we qualify for.
