It's been a while since I've updated everyone on the ministry here at RCC (both Student Ministry and my other "hats" I wear), so here you go. We're in the process of figuring out growth strategies right now at RCC. Not only people growth, but building growth, as we seek to build our first building … Continue reading Ministry Update 8-21-2009
My Flipnote Studio
No, I would not consider myself an artist, but this new [free] app for the Nintendo DSi is pretty cool. I'm more excited to see what others will create and post. If you want to check out my page, click here. My first flipnote video (and only, as of this posting) is called Goal! It's … Continue reading My Flipnote Studio
Roofing and Me
This past week, I went down to Whitman, MA, with a group of high school students and adults from RCC. We were a part of WorkCamp New England -- a service project (or mission trip) week where we served people in that community. We joined with 140-something others to paint, roof, build, and clean homes … Continue reading Roofing and Me
Flying with a Guitar
I've actually flown with my guitar(s) several times. The first was when I bought one while in Mexico. I didn't have a case for it, and so I slid it under the seat. Remarkably, it was still ok in the end. Since then, I've taken it in a case as a carry-on. Southwest is great … Continue reading Flying with a Guitar

Sure, we have some problems, but I am glad to live where I do. So many are not as blessed to have the freedoms we do in America. … Continue reading July 4, 2009

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

Ministry Had a great day Sunday with the Local Outreach Team, and we are gearing up for a year of outreach here in Salem (including some stuff for July 4th and hosting a 5K … Continue reading Quick Update
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. There were almost 1,000 people in attendance. This year, we are hoping and praying for even more. This is an amazing "first-touch" experience … Continue reading Easter Egg Hunt 2009
