hello all, im back from China

Hey everyone, well if it seems like a long time that's because it was!!!! I am very sorry for the length of time between post, I have no excuse other that being lazy. I am sitting in my office (let me tell you how much I love doing it) finishing up work that I have not done, when it dawned on me how much has gone on. We had 2 Vacation Bible Schools, I had a trip to Tennessee, 2 Student camps and, normal church life. So let me catch you all up(if you have like 15 min).

To start off the summer, our church had its first ever Sr. High VBS. This was the first week in June, to show you how behind I am. We started around 7 and went till 9ish every night. The students had crafts, large and small group times, snacks, recreation, worship, and more. My thanks to all the members of our church and Faith Fellowship for all there help in staffing it, Heroes would not of been anything with out you all. There are is a lot of pics on the student website from all the days, so go check them out. I think the final number of those in attendance was 40ish, which was 13 more than last years. So a big thanks to all who helped and God who made it all possible, but that was not the only Vbs done at Immanuel.

Two weeks later we did our second Vbs called,"GameDay Central". This was from seventh grade and younger. They had the same layout as the Sr. High students and had about 10 more students the week. We also have a bunch of pics from this week at the churches website.

Next Kadee and I had our first of many long road trips, we went to see family in Tennessee. We left on a Thursday night and drove until like 0530 A.M. when we got down there. It was a nice trip, we got sun, and great food at our family reunion. Once again I have a lot of pics from this trip up online on my Myspace. Just select the pics icon and open up the Tennessee trip folder and enjoy all things Auvenshine.

Then we had like one or two days down before leaving for Youth camp for a week. This week of the three that I have been to was by far the best. We took 10 students and 4 adults, day one had two of or students become Christians. The week was filled with the students making some huge choices for the Lord. We had great worship, and sermons each night, with fun games and events during the day. One day we used nothing but food, it was nasty. For pics go to the Student Myspace or My Myspace. The trips up and down were fun as well, from Ashley puking in Jill's car in St. Johns, to Jill's Car not working Twenty feet from the church, Satin was working on our group. But non the less we made it through with the help of God.

Life with Kadee is going very well, we got a kitten only to find out that Kadee is allergic to it, and we had to give it away. The wedding stuff is going well also, we just picked out our cake. I wont tell you much about it but it is going to stand 24 inches high with a base or 18 inch and , 4 layers. 65 more days and we get married, it seemed like it was one month ago when we were counting down like 195 days and now we are almost two months out yea!!!!! Oh yea our Nike shox came in and they are sweet. look for the at the wedding. well that's it for now, ill try and keep up with the updated. so till the next time remember Salvation is one conversation away with God. Ask him and he will grant it. see ya
