Yvette just got a new job in Massachusetts, and she starts tomorrow. Since Yvette will be taking the car, we were in need of another vehicle that I could drive back and forth to work. We didn't have a ton of money to spend on a second car, so we decided to go in a … Continue reading My New Scooter
Give Me Your Eyes
The 40th Annual GMA "Dove Awards" were held last night to congratulate all the top singers and songwriters in Christian music. I wish I had more than just basic cable so I could have watched it online. Oh well. If you were like me or just missed it, you can view the list of winners … Continue reading Give Me Your Eyes

Easter 2009
Another year, and another time the world begins to celebrate Easter. Even though some may only think of bunnies and dyed eggs, many remember the true reason for celebration -- Jesus Christ's resurrection! This year, I will spend another Easter away from home and family, but it is great to have my wife around. At … Continue reading Easter 2009
Easter Egg Hunt 2009
For the last seven years, RCC has hosted a community Easter egg hunt on the day before Easter. Last year was the first year we hosted it at the Rockingham Park Racetrack.

We had a great time just hanging out together and enjoying a the slopes with only about 30 other people there (at least that's what it seemed like... I guess Mondays are slow days for skiing for obvious reasons). This actually marked the third time we've … Continue reading Skiing in NH
March Madness 2009

While I'm not involved in the betting side of things, I am involved in a couple friendly bracket challenges over on Facebook (through CBS Sports). Yes, I … Continue reading March Madness 2009
What a Day!
I've had a great last few weeks of ministry here at RCC! Today was especially exciting. After a great day of skiing yesterday with the middle school students, I got up a bit slower this morning. However, it was totally worth it. Today, at RCC, I was privileged to baptize 3 teenage boys who have … Continue reading What a Day!
New England the Least Religious in the USA
Why am I here in New Hampshire? Why have I moved far away from my family? Why have I left old friends 2,000 miles away? Why do I place my trust and faith in an "unseen" God? Why do I continue to submit my life to Him and follow His calling to work in the … Continue reading New England the Least Religious in the USA
Head Shoulders Knees and Toes
I had a GREAT time this past weekend at the "Deep Freeze" retreat at Camp Berea with the students. Expect more info soon. Sunday morning, they showed this video of U2 singing the "classic" song "Head Shoulders Knees and Toes" with some special guests. We all thought it was quite funny. I found it on … Continue reading Head Shoulders Knees and Toes
