One Year Older

My birthday has come and gone since I last made an entry. I'm one year closer to 30 and don't feel any different:) I guess that's a good thing. Although, sometimes I get annoyed that people think I'm younger than I am. When I was little, it was the opposite. That annoyed me too. I just have to get over it. Ok, i've decided i'm over it:)

Well, things have been pretty busy over the past couple of weeks. I spent the last week in Ohio and Indiana. Not at the same time of course. I was in Colerain, Ohio at Real Life church
where they hosted a banquet to raise money for the brick machine for Widow's Might Ministries. I don't know if I've mentioned the brick machine yet. It is a cool invention that uses dirt, cement and water to create interlocking bricks to create a building without the use of mortar. The company is based in South Africa, so it's on the same continent that we need it to be on. Therefore, shipping will be less expensive! The goal is to purchase this machine to build the Widow's Center. It can put out 1600 bricks a day, I believe. The cost is $20,000. We are now on our way to having almost 10% of the cost. So anyway, after the banquet on Friday night, I filmed my mom and the pastor's wife, Joyce. They both went to Belarus together a few years ago to work with widows. Hopefully that will be some footage I can use to put together the next DVD for Widow's Might. On Sunday, the Widow's Might DVD was shown in church, my mom presented the ministry and I played my violin. It was a good day.

After Ohio, my mom and I drove to Anderson, Indiana. We met with Ruth Shinness. She is a lady who wrote a prayer book called Prayer Strategies. We took two days to film her teaching on different topics regarding prayer. Our intent is to use it for a podcast.

It was sure a full week! But worthwhile for the Kingdom:)
