Sunday!!

Sunday was a cold day! Cold! Cold!

Well actually it was not cold, but chilly. We met at Roy's Place at 9AM to help set up "church." Since Connect is a church plant, they meet at Roy's (a recording studio/concert hall). We turned recording rooms into childrens and preschool rooms. We set up chairs, signs, banners, etc. to make the concert hall a worship center. It was very cool. Connect does this every Sunday morning. Having 26 of us to help took very little time. They were amazed at how quick things happened.

As worship began, our group probably outnumbered the normal crowd. Due to the holiday, there were a number of folks missing because of vaction, traveling, etc. It was a great time worshipping with fellow followers of Jesus.

Sunday afternoon and evening we spent at a 4th of July block party in Pastor Dale's neighborhood. We were in charge of games for all of the neighborhood kids. We had a great time with them. Game time ended with a major water balloon war in 50 degree temperatures. What were they thinking?!

The neighborhood had chipped in for fireworks. It was a a spectacular show. Incredibly enough it was better than some community fireworks displays. It was a long day, late night, and Monday morning was coming quickly!
