Spring is here




It's nice to finally turn the corner from winter to spring.  Sure, we still have cold days but more
 often than not, the sun shows up.  It was a busy spring week here in Kansas City.  On Saturday we attended a sunny easter egg hunt along with the rest of Independence.  It was fun, crowded and a little nuts.  The next day on Easter Sunday, it was cold and bitter but that didn't stop the egg searchin' or the celebratin'.  We had record attendance at New Community Church and filled up two services.

On Monday Justin and I headed out to the newly refurbished Kaufman Stadium and watched the Royals and Indians play.  We even brought the grill and did a little tail-gating.  It was still in the 40's on Monday and with the breeze it felt like 4 so we only lasted until the 5th inning.  Go Royals!

In some other not-so-exciting news, I had a chance to visit the UMKC Dental School on Tuesday.  Ugh.  Looks like I am getting a root canal but the cost at UMKC is about 1/3 of usual so I am thankful for that.  This week we have the Doulos Board of Directors in town so please keep those men in your prayers.  The building are not done, money is tight and the economy is tough but we are up to 19 residents now.  If you recall, we started with 5 in September.   In all things, God remains faithful.  Thanks for all of your continued support!!
