Pausing at the end of a busy day... a busy week. Setting aside computer problems and random stressors. Breathing in, breathing out. I stop before leaving work and hear the choir rehearsing, reminding: How deep the Father's love for us How vast beyond all measure I recall the many ways I witnessed that deep love… Continue reading Our Prince of Peace

I’ll Love You Forever!
I was just wandering through Dollar Tree trying to find the something I needed when I heard the conversation. They were just two twenty-somethings co-workers trying to pass time as they restocked the shelves. "Oh did I tell you..." one asks the other as if she's simply going to state some random fact about her… Continue reading I’ll Love You Forever!
The Presence of God Around Us
This past weekend was a lot of fun for me in ministry... a little crazy... but a lot of fun. It seems that the Christmas season creates opportunities for people to connect with each other than normally wouldn't be around. Over the past week or so, this has been the case time and time again:… Continue reading The Presence of God Around Us

CCA and Williamsville South
After a week off, I was back prayer-running yesterday morning. I think I'm about halfway through the schools, though it's hard to tell since some of them are close enough to double up... like I did yesterday with Central Christian Academy and Williamsville South High. Below are some of the things I prayed for/experienced while… Continue reading CCA and Williamsville South
More prayer than running, but a prayer run none the less…
I received the following post from a high school parent on Facebook: Bekah I think that Williamsville North needs a prayer run Somewhat "excited" (not the right word) that I had a clear answer of where my next prayer run should take place, I replied asking her to let me know if she had specific… Continue reading More prayer than running, but a prayer run none the less…
Kenmore East Prayer Run
So I started this "prayer run" idea thinking that I'd be running with purpose. However, I discovered that the opposite was true as well... having a purpose got me to run. Nothing about this morning said, "looks like a great morning for a run!" I had played volleyball for a few hours last night, which… Continue reading Kenmore East Prayer Run
Workcamp-The First Couple days!
Hello all! Things are going VERY well at Workcamp 2011 in Hurricane, WV. First thing’s first…. as you read “Hurricane” throughout the next few days… whatever you do, DO NOT read it as “HurricAne”. That is NOT how you pronounce the city in which we serve! The correct pronunciation is actually more like Hurri-“KIN” (kin… Continue reading Workcamp-The First Couple days!
