Facebook friends...

It has been neat to reconnect with so many old friends over the past few months through Facebook. We have a dear friend, Cynthia, who we have lost contact with over the years and just recently discovered that she just lives a few miles from us!!! She came for a visit yesterday and we had a such a good time catching up. We showed her around campus, introduced her to some of our neighbors and then took her out for dinner at one of favorite restaurants, Uno's Chicago Style Pizza. She ended up staying the night after we stayed up way too late talking. Who says Facebook is just for the young?!?! Thanks for coming, Cynthia...so glad G*d brought us back together!!

Uno's was great as always...

After some chocolate at Schakolad Chocolate Factory, we moved on to Barnes & Noble....

A great night with a great friend....

Favorite Quotes:

"The world is not our place of rest; it is a time of work and follow hard after Je$us. When we get home, we can rest. But for now, G*d is calling His children to share the gospel of the cross, the power of our Holy Father; it's time we obediently follow Him. May we all live our lives in a manner worthy of the calling we have received in Chr!st Je$us. May we live lives we will never regret." -- FACING TERROR, Carrie McDonnall
"Waiting on G*d requires the willingness to bear uncertainty, to carry within myself the unanswered question, lifting my heart to G*d about it whenever it intrudes upon my thoughts." --Elisabeth Elliot
"We are not the point. The point is G*d's glory and the needs of a lost world." -- company website
"Great advances in demonstrating the B!ble's relevance rarely come from the restless minds of marketers. They come from people who dare to obey what they read. ...On the cruel edges of the world, there is no need for elaborate explanations to bring a distant b!blical text closer to our lives. Rather, when we go to the cruel edges of the world, we bring our lives closer to the text." --Andy Crouch, Chr!stianity Today
"...because I know that my Father knows, and I am going to watch and see how He unravels this thing." -- Oswald Chambers, MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST
"TAKE WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TAKE. TAKE YOUR PIANO, YOUR APPLIANCES, AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO TAKE. BUT TAKE THEM IN YOUR HANDS. IF THEY EVER GET INTO YOUR HEART, YOU ARE THROUGH AS A M." -- Dr. Baker James Cauthen, exec. sec. of the company, 1962.
“Lay it all on the altar – your life, your family, your comforts – and count it joy that you have the privilege of serving Him, and you’ll have the song in your heart." -- Jerry Rankin, company President
