Wow, what a great week! It began last Sunday with so many Wesleyan students coming to Fellowship that cars were filled to the max (and then some) and Cindy made 2 trips!

Then the 10K Throw Down, Pastor Andy challenging us to pray for 1 hour a week for 1 year for Fellowship. I took the challenge. It’s been exciting to see how just thinking about the 60 minutes and making sure I spend the time in prayer has led to more thinking about prayer and more praying! I’m more aware of my need for God and His power and blessing in all parts of my day.. and my life.

And that has led to seeing God at work this week in so many situations. One of the BIG items I’ve praying for was the start of Friday night LP. And WOW did God ever do an amazing work. The evening was full of rain (my legacy from last year’s Friday night LP was you’d know if Gerri was going to be there because there was either LOTS  of snow or torrential rains!)  The curse continued through this year with, yup, torrential rains… for the starting night. I got to LP about 6 and the hallways were already full of teens. And they kept coming and coming… I’d prayed for a good turnout (thinking 50 or so teens would be awesome for the first night) and God sent over 100 teens! The whole evening was WOW. God blessed abundantly in everything – the worship was great – the message Matt gave was funny and thought provoking and the message of what it means to be Living Proof clear and challenging.  I was so pumped up when I got home that I couldn’t stop talking about it.

And the 2 celebrations that were held this week for Pastor Steve and Sandra. It’s been another WOW moment.. really, moments, as various people spoke of the impact the Eiss’s and their ministry here. What an awesome legacy they have of loving and serving the people of God… all over the world. Today’s service was awesome and WOW!

And more of seeing and hearing of God at work all around me. One of our daughters, her husband and dogs are living in Houston. They are hot and uncomfortable, but they’ve survived the hurricane intact and no damage to themselves or their home. More WOW.

WOW, what a great week!
