Who's your Neighbor?

Sunday I will preach my very first "real" sermon in front of "real" people... not just seminary students.  (sorry PESM friends).  I'm a tad-bit worried.  This is my final for preaching class...  I'm going to be so glad when this class is done and I won't have to write and give sermons.

Children's Pastor's Conference

Early in December, I found a conference that I really wanted to go to.  It was in March and was going to be held in sunny San Diego, California, what more could you ask for?  Well, the fact is, there was more.  Pleanty more...  The line-up of break-out sessions on special needs alone, was fantastic.  Plus (this was a big one for me!) they were offereing full scholarships!  I filled out all the paperwork, however, I didn't get everything together in time to send it in by the mail-in date.  I decided to turn it all in anyways...   I got the scholarship!  Yay!!
