Super Sunday

Wow - what a day! I had the opportunity to help out with Children's Worship Training this morning. Yes, I got up in time for the early service! After, of course, I got up, ate breakfast, then realized that I had an extra hour (I had forgotten to turn my clocks back!). This was my first time in CWT and it was interesting. I sat on the row with Hannah Ferrie, Mallory Gowen, and Gracie Metheny. Mr. Brent asked the children what made them happy. Hannah's first response - her mom. I was impressed with CWT - and the kids were so cute.

While the kids were going to class, I headed to my cradle roll class. Luckily, I had already set up. I kept hoping I'd have help - and I did. Alice Jewell, Pat Berry, and I managed to corrall 9 little munchkins. Two of them cried the whole first half, most didn't want to sit, and the other kept throwing the toys. But we survived! We did have several visitors and some new children that had moved up. I'm almost glad that I'll be gone next week. But I have full confidence in Mrs. Jewell - I wouldn't have made it today if she hadn't been there!!!!

I made a 15-bean soup last night and had some for lunch, along with some cornbread. Yum! I think that will last me ALL week. What cheap eating for the week.

Tonight's worship was Singing Night! That is always a favorite of mine - and I was glad I wasn't running the powerpoint. Mike Wood took requests - and the PPT operator got to find the songs and put them up. And there were so many requests that we only sang the first and last verses. Oh but the singing was so wonderful, uplifting, and encouraging!!!! We even had a few guest songleaders. I think Jalen or Jaden Montgomery was by far the audience favorite. He came up, stood on his stool, and led "Blue Skies and Rainbows." His way of remembering the verses (he's only 6)? He drew a picture that was projected. Way too cute - and he did an excellent job complete with applause. Glenn Olree led two songs - he has a great voice and did a wonderful job! Warren Casey led several songs also. We finished with "The Greatest Command" and "The Lord Bless You and Keep You" - a great ending to a great service.

So I'm ready to face another week - a short work week for me! I'm taking off Friday & Monday and heading to Long Beach, MS. I'm ready for the break and to see the Eyrichs again. I'm going to be cleaning house this week - I want to come home to a nice, clean house next Monday night!

Have a great week everyone.
