Two Weddings and a Funeral

More than an allusion to a film from a few years, ago this has been much of my life's work for the last few days. Mimi and I have been earning a little side cash (which always comes in handy when your primary income is support-raised) by coordinating weddings (Mimi) and I run the sound board. It has really helped recently. We were able to do two weddings in December which helped with Christmas spending and now we are slated to do two in February. So we have been making plans, talking to the parties involved etc. I will, however, miss the second as I will be at Christian Associate's Leadership Summit in Lisbon at the end of February. No tears are necessary.

In addition to the weddings, I was contacted this week about doing a funeral. Though I never knew the man who died, (heart attack, age 51) I got to know him through his family over the past few days. Jack was a man who spent his life helping people with cars, computers, or personal problems. He was known as a real servant who cared more about others than himself. In our materialistic and self-absorbed world I am glad to meet (even posthumously) a man who swam against the tide. So if you think of it, pray for me tomorrow morning around 11 a.m. PST. Thanks!
