Sunday Scrapbook: Moments from the Week

 


Jonathan invited me to share a series of messages if I wanted, so I am doing a five-week series broken up over time. I’m doing three weeks right now, and last Sunday was the second week – focused on prayer. I learned so much about prayers of the Bible as I prepared!

Monday night I was supposed to have a meeting at church, so Ryan and Jonathan scheduled a training meeting so Ryan could learn how to run the sound board. My meeting was canceled, but I went anyway to work in my office while the training adventures continued!

I finished handwriting the book of Matthew last week! This was so significant to me. When I started the project on January 1, I really wasn’t sure if I would follow through with it, but I did! Now I’m moving forward with the book of Mark, but it was really beautiful to complete Matthew!

Ryan’s job description adjustment means he will be in a new (to him) office. They’ve added some furniture and I got to visit him and see what it looks like so far. I am SO EXCITED to get it all decorated for him and see how it looks!

The weather has been a little bit for the birds this week, but the sunrises and sunsets have been so pretty. I’ve been thankful for that…as I pull out sweaters and coats again.

Friday afternoon I had the chance to meet up with a friend for coffee and a long, long talk. I haven’t seen her in person for a couple of years, so we had a lot of catching up to do. I was thankful for it. (Not quite as thankful that my coffee cup lid failed, and I ended up wearing hot coffee, but the conversation was worth it!)

Yesterday was our monthiversary, and I look forward to telling you all about it. There really is much to tell. But can I just say (in summary) that spending a whole day with Ryan was the best. We did have to work a few hours at the church, but even then we were able to be together. We had some great stories and laughs along the way. Come back this week for some stories!
