Sunday at Harvest went well. I preached on Psalm One, specifically focusing on delighting in God as a source of "fuel" for us to impact lives and find deep joy. I think it was well-received and pray that they were God's words, not mine. I am excited about what is going on at Harvest and see it as an opportunity for the church to grow out of some tough times.
Tonight my grandma and grandpa Parmenter come to town on their southeast vacation. They'll just be staying tonight with us but it will be nice to spend some time with them. Then on Wednesday Jake (Jen's brother) his wife Melissa and Jen's sister Jodi will be flying in to spend almost a week here. We're really excited about that as it will be our first family to visit us!
Good 'ol coffee culture is pretty quiet this morning and will be until around 7:00, as usual. To be honest, I don't think it's worth it to be open at 5:30 but I'm not the boss. I usually have three to four customers between 5:30 and 7:00. But, I enjoy being here in the mornings and I am enjoying my job in general. I guess that's about it. Stay in touch, all of you!
