A GOOD SUNDAY

This was a good Sunday, August 3, 2008. I had a great time preaching today, as I included some singing, some preaching and some teaching!!

It was good having our Deacon, Jim Bennett back with us, who has been traveling for work. Deacon Jim joins us on the altar the first weekend of every month, plus handles Communion Services when I am away.

I was pleased to hear that there is at least ONE PERSON who reads the blog, and its not even my mother!!!

After Mass this weekend, I went to meet up with a friend and we dined at Alfalpha's in Lexington. I believe it was my first time to eat at this restaurant and it was good! We later spent time at Starbucks and walking around downtown Lexington! I don't do this enough -- i.e., taking time out for myself and to be with friends.

Getting ready for my mom's birthday gala which will take place on August 16th in Orange, Texas (A day AFTER her real birthday of August 15). It will be good to gather with my brothers, sisters, relatives and friends as we celebrate the life of our mother!!

Still working hard on getting DOLLY to Richmond! Needless to say, if people only realized all the details that go on with putting on such a production -- I think they would be shocked! I did post a ROCKING CHAIR on ebay!!! We will see what this auction brings!

Just a reminder that our 12 GRAND EVENT takes place August 23rd with a lot of amazing silent auction items as well as the opportunity for someone to win $12,000.00. Last year, I had the great opportunity to be one of the winners!!!

Here is hoping that you all have a great day!
