New House - The Outside

Here is a picture of the outside of our house. The next picture is a taste of what our Sunday afternoon looked like after receiving one foot of snow. We had lots of shoveling to do (2 hours worth). We will put up more pictures of the inside once we officially move in.

STP

Every Sunday night we get together with our student leaders for something we call STP. It stands for sharing, training, and prayer. We pray for the campus that God would use us to build laborers on the campus. We usually pray with a map in front of us, reminding us that the Gospel going forth to the nations is the end. This is always such a great time of encouragment for us. It is fun to see how God is changing our students' vision for their lives and for the campus. Our training time has been spent going through the book "Teaching to Change Lives" by Howard Hendricks. I highly recommend you reading it if you are in a position where you are looking to influence people around you (we are praying that all of you would have a desire to impact others with the Gospel). This is a picture of the students taken after STP two weeks ago.

Winter Carnival '07

We braved the 0 degree wind chill to see some ice and snow sculptures at the annual Winter Carnival in St. Paul. It is a miracle that Charlie was able to get the camera out of the pocket long enough to take the picture. But it didn't seem quite as bad once we experienced 64 hours of temperatures below zero. The coldest in 2 years. Enjoy these pics from the carnival.
