I do not envy you. Except that you'll be in the same services with my son, and possibly his college classes, too. We'll be watching as much as we can online, so maybe I'll catch a glimpse of you! All the students who are children of missionaries will be singing Wednesday night of the conference.

Wes purposely scheduled all of our meetings in areas close to each other just to keep us from having to dash across the country, but sometimes it just can't be helped! LOL I do hope you enjoy your busy week!

FeathersMcGraw said...

Hey JM! Take it easy. Wooo...

You could have come a little south to say hello while you were in Lancaster!

Pen of Jen said...

Wow! I am sure that everyone is blessed by you sharing your experience!

Shane Rios said...

I'm exhausted and overwhelmed after simply reading this. It certainly is the grace of God that will get you both through these next few weeks! I MISS YOU!
Oh and while you're out at West Coast Bible College, look up Hondo Kim. He graduated from West Gate the same year as Josh. He also played sports with Josh. Please tell him I send warm wishes.

Shane Rios said...

Oh and since I'm on here again, let me say, "I ROFLOL so hard when I read Jackie's post about Lele and her *gifts*! It reminded me of Jayde and her *gift* in your red high heels!

Unknown said...

I just went back to your post about CHE (YUCK!) and linked to the sites Jackie included. Cool alternatives!

Susan, we will not be there for Wednesday! Too bad! We normally try to keep things close but, Pastor Cahpell called a few weeks after we had everything scheduled in New England and asked us to please try and come out for some of the conference...so...

Do you even find the time for breathing? ;D

Oh I'm glad you have the energy to keep with yourself. I do not believe I would have the energy.

The flesh is weak would be my reality. When I get to be an angel, and don't need to sleep, never loose energy, then I may be able to keep up with you.

And, I know it is GRACE alone that carries you!!!

Obob said...

sleep is overrated. I ran into a fraternity brother who is a missionary in South America last weekend. Great kid. I'm glad to see the direction life sent him.

Michael said...

Ouch. That's a brutal schedule.
Good luck to you, and have a safe trip.

Ashley said...

Webutante said...

We can only do it so long without catching up with ourselves, Rita.

Hope you are better rested now!

Harry said...

Sleep? Can you multi-task while you sleep?

Glenn B said...

Sounds like you sure got back into the swing of the fast lane once you got back to the states from Chavezistan. You go lady!

All the best,
Glenn B

Gayle said...

My goodness, Rita... you're putting in as much flight time, possibly more, than the politicians running for office! God bless. and try to get some rest when you get the chance.
