Crazy Day!!

Today started crazy right off the bat. I usually meet with students on Tuesday mornings at 6:30 am for a weekly prayer breakfast (no, I'm not that spiritual, the students want to meet, so I'm all for it) Well, this morning didn't quite work out, not because we didn't have it but because my alarm never went off!! I was awakened at 7:15 by sunlight coming through my bedroom window. The students still met without me which was very encouraging. I got to the office and continued working on my message for AMP'd tomorrow night until lunch time. I went to a lunch meeting with about 8 other youth guys in this area for a time of encouragement and just to talk ministry for a little bit. After that, a couple of the guys wanted to come by and check out "The Garage", so I gave them a tour. Then it was off to Pickens High School to meet with the athletic director about bringing Project 109 (our tailgating bus) to the game on Friday night. Everything's a go, and while I was there I spoke with the head football coach and set up a time for us to do the pre-game meal for the team this season. It was a very productive meeting and I think it is vital that as a student ministry we work to connect and help schools out when we can. They have the best pulse on what is going on in the lives of students. I finally made it back to the office around 3:30 and have just now made it back to my desk after meeting with builders for the past 2 1/2 hours about "The Garage", so my mind (what little is there) is completely mush!! I can't believe I was even able to formulate a few complete sentences. Now it's back to message prep and some dinner.

Later!!
