So for all 6 of you that are following this blog, I finally have an update! We had a substantial break in traveling/events from the end of January until mid-February. It has picked up again and will get crazy come March and April.
About a week and half ago, I got the opportunity to play dinner music and do a few songs at a Sweetheart Dinner. A good friend of ours pastors a church in Johnstown, a rural town northeast of Columbus, and this is an annual event he does for his people. With me playing during the evening, unfortunately, Emily was the only one without a sweetheart and was definitely the 5th wheel at her table. She's a real trooper.
Also, the church needed someone last minute to lead music worship for the next day's service. Emily and I got to come back the next morning to help and I even talked Em into joining me to lead a couple songs. The church is really cool. They meet at a high school, and Dan (our pastor friend) said there were a lot of people there for the first time, many of whom were unchurched. They have avoided making the Sunday service the strong focal point for their ministry. Instead, they do an awesome job of ministering to and reaching people during the week, where they are at. Please pray for Dan and Faith Fellowship as they grow. Pray that they would continue to preach the Gospel in words and action. Pray for the new believers at the church, as there are many who are finding their way in their new relationships with Jesus.
More updates coming very soon....
