IT'S GOING WELL

Someone (or several "someones") must be praying. Last week and so far this week have gone extremely well, work-wise. I have enjoyed my traveling around the State of Indiana. I have had a nice rental car--a new Nissan Altima. It is one of those new keyless start. Just push a button while stepping on the brake and it starts! Pretty cool! They started it for me when I picked it up Monday and I drove to the post office. When I got back in the car, I couldn't figure out how to start it. So I called the car rental place and with their instruction, I got it started. It was telling me to put on the brake but I thought it was telling me the brake was on!

The weather has been great for traveling and although I have seen several automobile/truck accidents I haven't been involved in any! My meetings have gone well and I'm actually getting to think that I know a little bit about what I'm presenting! I have been well received.

Except for tomorrow, when I am attending a Trustees' meeting, and except for one other day, I'll continue traveling every work day until Thanksgiving week. I hope the weather holds!

I thank God daily for His many, many blessings. Among His many blessings is my health. I am grateful that I feel well and am able to do what is required of me--both at work and home responsibilities. I do get tired but a good night's sleep takes care of that.

I've been asked to take a new "job" at church. I currently serve in rotation at the main entrance Welcome Center second service. I'll know more about my additional responsibility at church after a meeting I'll attend Sunday morning. All I know now is that because our Minister of Outreach is going to plant a couple of new churches in Miami, Florida, I'll be a special greeter at the main entrance. We have a Corp of greeters at each door but my responsibility is to especially look for first-time visitors. Our minister of Outreach has been at our church for 31 years. We're going to miss him. I'm wondering about this new ministry but I'm trying to withhold judgement until I learn more details Sunday.

But I know that God has been so absolutely awesome that I am thankful for any opportunity to serve Him and His church.

More later,

Jim
