I know, I know
April 15th, 2008 by Pastor Eric
I know it has been a long time since I have written. Believe me I hear about it from Sam almost everyday. We entered a very busy season in life; moving our home; moving our offices; starting a campus at McGuire’s. All that has added to putting this blog on the back burner. But apparently according to Darlene and Sam, people want to hear what I have to say.
So, I have decided to try and start this back up but instead of trying to make sure I have something witty and creative to say, I am going to just write what is on my heart.
We have 8 minutes before we leave the hotel for the morning session of the annual ARC conference in Birmingham. We brought 11 people up here from Shoreline. Of course there is Darlene and me; Brent and Judy Hoogewerf (it is spelled just the way it sounds). Brent is our volunteer coordinator and Judy is the young lady who did such a great job singing Sunday morning.
There is also Joe, our youth intern, and Brian, the Creative Arts Director for Shoreline. For them this is their 1st ARC conference. Next, we have a room full of girls, Esther, Christen (she works with the youth and runs the Real Info area and talks like she is from Mississippi or Baker), and Sandi Metcalfe.
Kelly Reynolds and Jeremy (Jeremy is doing a fabulous job in Shorebreak Kids) are sharing a room. Kelly has such a servants heart. He got up at 5 this morning and got everybody coffee and fruit.
Then the group is rounded out by Pastor Sam. Sam and I will be flying back this afternoon on someone’s private plane for McGuires.
This conference is always a great time for us. It is like a family reunion of Shoreline type churches from all over the country.
So, I gotta head out. See you tonight if you attend the McGuire’s campus.
Eric, the Know it all
