It's official - the counter IS broken.

The counter has been at 50 for a while. I thought that maybe no one was coming. I was a little sad, cause I did think this might be something some people might visit and find helpful or interesting... But I talked to a friend who said he'd been on in the last week. And there's a vote on the blog, and it wasn't me, and it was after the person who said he'd been here was here. And the counter is still at 50. So I'm losing the counter. And I encourage you to leave comments or vote on the polls or something so I know you've been here. Thanks. And for the record, I think you rock.

Opportunities to help out...

#1 - Steve Larsen CD Release Party - Friday January 16, 7:30 at the Museum. Byron is doing this as a youth event, and invites the young adults to join in for two reasons - he thinks this is something you might want to go to, and he could use the help getting the youth there. Please let him know (or me) if you are free that night to meet at the church at 7 to help drive. #2 - Coffee. You like that it's available on Sunday mornings, right? It takes work to offer that, and you are being asked to think about if that's something you could help out with. We're hoping to have enough teams to do it in rotation, and for part of a morning, not the whole thing. Please let Byron or Carolyn know if you're interested or available to help.

Games and Partying... Come on, Sunday, get here already!!

Ok, so we've had it in the bulletin at church for a few weeks now that we're doing a games night on January 10th. There were two reasons for this: 1 - Because there is a joint youth event on the Friday, leaving those of you who are youth sponsors a free Saturday to do something. 2 - Because the feed back at our sparsely attended Photo Scavenger Hunt (which turned into a games night) was that people would rather hang out and play games. So. A games night was planned. (And more will be planned, and I would love it if you would open your homes and host one!) But then I went on holidays and forgot to let you know where and when. Which turned out to be a good thing, because just before I sent out that info yesterday, I got a text. From Holly. Saying, can we have a party on Sunday so I can see everyone before I leave? Of course, she has a work Christmas party on Saturday night, so we have agreed happily to cojoin the two events. If you are reading this, you probably got the email that gave you the details, but here it is anyway: Sunday, January 11, 2009 7 PM Westhill Park Party House (aka Westhill Park Baptist Church) Bring games, munchies and friends. Oh yeah - why a farewell for Holly? Well, she and cousin Steph heard that it was warmer on the other side of the world, so they're taking off for Australia for a few months. Nice.
