February? Really?

I am not complaining mind you but it sure is weird to have great weather in February. Up in till last week it has been a tough winter. Lots of snow and record cold temperatures had become the norm. I can get used to this. Of course weather like this in February can give you a false sense of spring. Cold and snow can come back but until then let's enjoy the weather.

It's been somewhat quiet at the mission lately. We normally have a lot more going on. We are still busy but not like normal. This has helped us think more about this summer. For the first time in years I (Jay, Executive Director) plan to be more involved in the daily activities of the summer program. From managing summer staff to leading worship I plan to be very involved. I sense we need to refocus our work in the summer towards more spiritual things. We need to be focused on Jesus not ourselves or the good work that is done. For the first time in our history we will start our week and end our week in worship. Instead of rushing off on Monday mornings to work sites we will gather for worship. We hope by starting off our week this way we will be focused on Jesus all week long. We end our week on Thursday night just like we started, in worship.
