SERIES: Everyone a Minister, Everyone a Mission
TITLE: Created With Purpose
TEXT: Psalm 139; Ephesians 4
SYNOPSIS: If God calls us to live in his kingdom, he has created us to serve in it as well. In fact, we were created for that purpose, to be ministers in his kingdom. That means every person has value, every person gets to contribute, every person derives meaning by being a blessing to others. The hope is to move people from simply existing in the world day-to-day, to serving purposefully in his kingdom where there is life.

Happy New Year 2011


Got to visit with my brother's kids in Mississippi


Went out to the family farm a few times and got to bond with Dad (doing beaver pest control / hunting).


Visited Grandparents, Mom and Herbert on Christmas


Got to do alittle hunting and fishing


Flying out of SNA airport into Minneapolis to Memphis and back from Memphis to Salt Lake City and then back to Orange County at SNA.


It was a quick but eventful eight days ... now gotta start losing all the extra weight that I picked before and during the holiday! A new resolution is in play!

Happy New Year my friends!

Holidays in Mississippi


Christmas Eve flight back to da South ... was going smoothly until I landed in MSP airport. Scheduled 3:30 flight ended up leaving at 7pm but I did enjoying having two sets of empty rows on both legs of my flight and met some nice Canadian travelers along the way. Finally rolled in my hometown of Greenwood at 11pm local time that night (I started at 4am in California).


Dad using his new birthday/Christmas gift digital camera that I got him! Finally into the digital age after using film cameras all his life! Now just trying to explain to him how to get the photos out ... that's another story!



My niece and nephew on Christmas Day


Opening some of their gifts on Christmas morning!

Children are blessings!

Happy Holidays my friends!
