It has been several weeks since we finished our "24 Days of Prayer". It was a great success and I encourage other churches to try something similar. We had over 600 in total attendance. With a daily average of over 25. We had over 100 different individuals attend the services. We prayed for well over 1000 people.
Everyone that attended was uplifted in many ways. Many individuals said it was the best thing that our church had done in a long time and that we should find something to do like that in the future.
I learned many things from the "24 Days of Prayer". I learned that Christians want and need to be around each other more often than the Sunday/Wednesday services. I learned that God answers prayers. I did not need this event to teach me that, it was just amazing to watch the prayers being answered right before our eyes during those 24 days. I learned that the more time Christians spend together the more they open up to other Christians and the more we are able to help each other because of the openness.
Overall the "24 Days" was a success!
Our church building project is going great. We have walls up and the painters will begin to paint in the next couple of weeks. A lot of the behind the scenes planning is going on for the building. It wont be long until all of the hard work pays off. We look to be in the building in January!!
How 'bout them Cowboys. They looked good against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Tennessee quarterback will be a good one in the future. He is just not ready now.
My Cardinals backed into the playoffs, but they are playing in October and so many other teams cannot say that. I do not expect them to make it to the series but I am still rooting for them!
I hope to update this blog everyday. Al you inspire me. You have so much to do and yet you write a blog for all of us to know what you are up to. Can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks.

Thanks, Dave! I enjoy my new blog - just from the personal journaling end of it. Makes me pay attention to life more. Glad you enjoy reading along.
I look forward to keeping up with you through your blog.
Hey, I looked back thru and noticed the picture of the lemon. That was amazing (of course, your golf picture is amazing, too). I'd love to see more of your pictures, too!
