Our Anniversary

We have officially been married for one year. It is hard to believe and the year has flown by. To celebrate we took a one night trip to a town called Lake City, MN. Lake City is right on Lake Pepin, which is the widest part of the Mississippi River in Minnesota. We stayed at a Bed and Breakfast called "The Frog and Bear." It was a good time for us to just be together and enjoy one another with no other distractions. We ate dinner on the Mississippi at a place called Skyline on Pepin. Trust us, the name makes it sound a whole lot cooler than it really is. Anyway, here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

We wanted to give you guys the opportunity to see the outside of our house in Spring time. Jennifer loves the pink bush on the left side of the house.

Summer in the Cities

We are finishing up the school year here, having last time conversations with many of the people that we are ministering to, hoping to set them up well for their spiritual growth this summer. We are already beginning our Summer in the Cities program. This will go from now until the middle of August. Many students from all over the Midwest come to Minneapolis-St. Paul for the summer, so we have a program to help them grow in their walks with God throughout the summer. We are studying the book of Colossians and giving them teachings on other life issues.
Our schedule:
Tuesday Night Teaching (TNT)- 7PM - We talk about studying the Bible, sharing our faith, worship, prayer, and many other aspects of the Christian life
Thursday Night Bible Study - 6PM - We meet and play games, then eat dinner, then have a 30 minute Bible study on the book of Colossians
Saturday Night - Attend church as a group, then have some informal time of fellowship following the service
