Wow!

It felt really good to be home and in the pulpit of my adopted home church, Trinity Lutheran in Saint Joseph Michigan.  We had a very enthusiastic response and it really felt like everything 'clicked' (so to speak).  Had a great high energy Sunday school class from 1st grade to high school and we played quizbowl, duct tape soccer, played some southern Africa music and 'Super Missionary' aka the missionary chain game. 

We are in the home stretch of a four weekend tour away from home, wrapping it up with a class at Trinity on Thursday AM and then weekend services at Trinity Paw Paw Michigan on Saturday and Sunday (four services!).  We then will host a booth at the Halloween alternative 'Hallow Him' back at Trinity St Joe on Sunday afternoon and a board meeting there on Monday night.  We then head back to Saint Louis on Tuesday, spend one night there and head for a week in Oklahoma (Tulsa and OK City areas) before heading home for a good ten day break.

Whoo!  God is good.  Peace, Rich
