went to church at South Dade today - it was good :) they used to be about the size of West Cannon but after hurrican Andrew hit lost a lot of people (because of the damage to the area, etc). but anyways.... definitely super solid, super loving group. I got to hang out with some kids while their parents were at choir practice :)
also, studied some of how Philippians 1:9-11 (Paul's prayer for abounding love) relates to I Corinthians 13 and I John 4:7+ ... pretty neat.
And David's here now - we just ran to Walmart to pick up some groceries. He's staying with the pastor for now, and they invited us over for dinner with their kids / grandkids :) good fellowship, sweet people. Pull-apart biscuits and stew :)
God is good.

"Count your blessings...and make your blessings count!" I'm enjoying reading through what God is doing in your life in just a few short weeks. So happy that you're settling in well and enthused about the upcoming school year! A thought on blessing #7 -- the classroom decor. Have you considered creating "prayer chains" out of paper? Maybe each month you could have a different prayer focus -- the kids could write requests, praises, or just thoughts on their own chain. Use 'em to decorate a bulletin board or hang them from the tops of the windows. The kids can add to the chains as they see God answering prayers or laying items for prayer on their hearts. Thinking, always thinking. Our small groups start up at church in a couple weeks ---- I might just use this same idea....and make it a "thankful" chain!
amanda you should update your blog...
