My Saturday Through Twitter

I laughed so hard when Mary, one of my senior girls, texted me this afternoon and said, "Someone is twitter happy today!"

She was right on. I was indeed twitter happy today.

What's funny is that there are times I go days without twittering, then there are days I twitter all that I can. I guess you could call me an inconsistent twit. Consistently inconsistent might be a better term.

Either way, today was a fun twittering day.

Most of my twittering today was due to the fact that I was on the edge of my seat waiting for updates from Debra. I told you I was obsessive about it and I'm certain I'll be obsessing over the situation until sweet Ronel is home. (BTW, for more details on all that is going on visit this website. Kristen explained the situation better than I ever could and is doing an excellent job fighting on Debra's behalf and recruiting people to do the same.)

The rest of my twittering was due to my documenting our day in College Station visiting my little brother.

My parents had a few things to take to him, so I traveled along for the free food and the adventure. Because that's what kind of daughter/sister I am.

My day went as follows.

(And for you iPhone people, each photo was either taken with ShakeItPhoto or QuadCamera. Two of my favorite iPhone apps.)

Here I am on my way to College Station sporting my Aaron Ivey "Help Haiti" t-shirt in honor of Debra, Ernest and Ronel. You can get one here. Did I mention that it's American Apparel? American Apparel, also know an the worlds best fitting and most comfortable t-shirt.. Did I also mention that I'm not driving? No way would I have been taking pictures of myself while driving. I also like to call this entertainment during the hour long drive.

We picked Kevyn up and headed straight to Koppe Bridge. The restaurant that has two random trees in the middle of the parking lot. No joke! I'm now wishing I'd of taken a picture so you can see for yourself. While there my dad proceeded to order the worlds largest Chicken Fried Steak. They say everything is bigger in Texas, and this meal is proof that fact.

There is a frozen custard shop in College Station called Shake's Frozen Custard that we frequent very often. It's very similar to a place we have here called Connie's Frozen Custard. However, today Kevyn wanted us to try the cutest frozen yogurt place called Spoons Yogurt. It did not disappoint. It's the ultimate buffet of frozen yogurt and is the neatest concept! You go in, serve yourself from about 12 different types of yogurt, then put all the toppings on you want. It's created by you and for you. Not to mention, nice on the budget. And what's even better is that it's run and operated by college students. If you're even in College Station and want some tasty yogurt, go there. I'll definitely be visiting again.

After Spoons a nap was definitely in order. Dad was the only napper, but me, Kev and Mom did get some nice R&R.


We ended up staying a lot later than we planned, and ended up leaving College Station around 4:30. That did not, however, keep us from taking a pit stop at the farmers market on the way home. It by far has the best fruit you'll ever place in your mouth. So fresh and delightful. We totally stocked up, like we always do. In fact, I just enjoyed a honeycrisp apple with a little peanut butter. Yum.

The minute I returned home, I had the unenviable task ahead of me which was to place these clothes where they belong. In the closet. I've been avoiding hanging up said clothes for some time, and the pile was getting overwhelming. I'll have you know that I conquered the pile of doom in a matter of 25 minutes. Once I get motivated and going, I actually enjoy cleaning, it's just the "getting motivated" part that's the clincher. (I can't believe I'm showing you a picture. Just keepin' it real.)

Let me redeem myself by adding this picture. The pile of doom completely gone. And no, I didn't just put the clothes on the floor.

After all was said and done, I sat myself down on the comfiest of couches, and put in Julie & Julia. Can you believe I haven't seen it yet? Of course I love blogging, but I'm wondering if it will inspire me to cook. Only time will tell.


There you have it, folks. A day in the life of Lindsee Lou through twitter.

Here's to blogging. And here's to twitter.

Do It Lord

*Debra just posted this link on her blog. It's a post that a missionary wrote about Ronel and how he dealt with not getting to come home when all the other children did. It will break your heart, but will push you all the more to pray.

I think it goes without saying that all of us know what's going down in Haiti.

It's devastating and I can't imagine how the Haitians are feeling or what they're going through. I can't even begin to say I know how they're feeling, because I don't. Hurricane Ike doesn't compare to anything that's gone on in Haiti. So, I'm not going to pretend, I'm just going to pray.

Pray that the Lord would provide people to go, give and pray.

One thing I know we can all do is be on our knees for Debra Parker and her sweet family.

Not only be on our knees, but watch God write a story that only he can write.

The Parker's have been in the process of adopting a little boy, Ronel, from Haiti for as long as I've known them. Debra and I met through blogging, but have since become real life friends and I adore her. Her faith and perseverance is nothing but encouragement to me.

Since the earthquake, they thought that the adoption process (that already takes years) was going to take even longer. However, I've been praying since that day that it only speeds up that process. And sped up it has.

I won't even go into all the details because there is a ton I honestly don't even understand or can explain. But currently Ernest is in Haiti and is trying to bring their boy home. I think it's appropriate to admit now that I've been obsessing over this since everything has gone down.

Debra is keeping their blog updated with the details that she can give, so I encourage you to not only pray, but go read her blog to get the whole story and leave her a prayer or comment of encouragement.

What man can't do, God can. And we're believing Him to bring Ronel home SOONER than later. Like soon as in this weekend. We're believing him that we'll need to plan a "Ronel Shower" when he gets here. Sweet Ronel has already had to watch his other friends leave as he was left behind and I can't imagine him having his heart broken again as his "dad" comes back to the states. Can you imagine?

So, please join me in praying for this sweet family. They have a slew of people standing in the gap for them and to add more to that list doesn't help.

Also obsessively this week I've been listening to Do It Lord by Travis Cottrell. I couldn't think of a more appropriate song for this whole process. Seriously, check out the lyrics:

I see the lost and nameless ones remembered
I see the widows shouting out your praise I see the friendless loved and celebrated
Orphans fulfilling, Lord, Your calling on their lives

I see forgiveness overtaking hatred Pride and prejudice now giving way to love
I see depression replaced with joy and gladness

And Satan’s lies now bowing to the Truth

Do it Lord, do it Lord, Do it Lord we are praying,
Do it Lord, do it that your glory may be seen

This is our prayer O God
This is our desperate cry
In these days that we’re living now

Let Your kingdom come let your will be done


Do it Lord! So that your glory may be seen!

Epic Blogup of 2010

There is something about blogging that sometimes I just can't explain.

Like for instance, when somebody asks me where I'm going and I tell them I'm going to spend a weekend with a bunch of bloggers, some of whom I've met and some of whom are strangers, more often than not they look at me like I'm crazy. Crazy or not, I absolutely love it.

There is a peculiar saying that people use to explain Texas A&M University and I think it is very appropriate for blogging, too. It says, "From the outside looking in, you can't understand it. From the inside looking out, you can't explain it." That pretty much sums up my feelings about the whole blogworld. (Aggies, I do love your school and took that quote out of context, so please forgive me. But isn't it appropriate?)

So, when I tell you that I spent the weekend with a bunch of bloggers, would you be surprised? Last January Beth Moore challenged a bunch of her readers to memorize 2 scriptures a month and I took the challenge, along with 2,000 other ladies. It was so neat and I am grateful the experience of intentionally hiding God's word in my heart. This past weekend was the celebration of memorizing all 24 scriptures appropriately called the SSMTC, or the Siesta Scripture Memory Team Celebration. Of course, not all 2,000 ladies were able to join, but we had the funnest group of 500 ladies!

It's pretty much been a blogup week, which I am totally okay with.

Friday night Heather and I drove down together and I'm pretty sure we both could have wet ourselves. I'm not sure why I was so nervous, but I just let it get to me. I even left my bible in the car and had to go back out and get it! I just enjoy Heather so much and am so glad we got to endure sweaty palms together. Once we got there I was fine and immediately found Georgia Jan, Kelli, Karen Barrows, Mom of 11 (Wendy), Missy, Big Mama and Emmy. I loved hugging their sweet necks and seeing them in person yet again.

After our session Friday night, which was super fun and encouraging with some awesome worship and teaching, I walked out to the lobby to find sweet Bev, Angie, Patty and Annette! Talk about some wise, encouraging ladies. I just love them to pieces. The whole time we were chatting and taking pictures I was holding my piece of Beth's Chocolate Texas Sheet Cake, my mouth was watering, but the last thing I needed was bits of brownies in my teeth. It took me a sweet hour to eat that thing. Mercy!

The night went by so fast! I told Heather that we were silly in not getting a hotel room. How fun would that have been? Next time, Heather, next time!

Saturday morning came quick but I was far from tired cause I had a ton of adrenaline. This was the day we were saying our scriptures and I knew I'd forget every last one of them. Thankfully, I did not! I couldn't say all 24, but I did more than 10! Praise Him!

After worship, Beth continued in teaching from Psalm 119. Y'all, my notes are upstairs at the moment, but it was so good. (Originally I just typed "god" for "good." It was most definitely God, though!) What I can remember is that she reminded us that in Psalm 119 the psalmist believed that he would actually direct us. He is the light unto our path and it's just one step at a time. All the while, we have to believe Him for that. We can't take matters into our own hands. If once we're done praying and done making our petitions for that day and we still have a heavy or burdened heart, we're still relying on ourselves to be God. We're not truly giving it up or trusting Him. Whoa. Folks, we will never be God to people or ourselves. I want to pray and release it to Him! His burden is much lighter than mine.

Once the teaching was done, they did a few giveaways and we had a short Q&A. I love Q&A's. They're just so fun and real!

We ended with In Christ Alone by Travis and then we were released! Talk about a whirlwind.

Of course we're bloggers and girls which means we can talk up a storm, which is exactly what we did in the foyer. I finally found and got to hug Melissa at this point (which I would have been so bitter if that weren't the case) and even Miss Beth! I truly did not think I would get to because I wanted to give everyone else a chance in line since I'm here every Tuesday, but after we did hug, I was so glad I got to.

After it was all said and done I went to lunch with Georgia Jan, Emmy, Wendy, Karen, and Deborah. Of course, we went to Pappasito's. Where else? Both Georgia Jan and Emmy had never been there and they most definitely got the special treatment. It was so fun!

We were so, so full after lunch but that didn't stop me from taking them to Crave Cupcakes. Yum. We all bought our cupcake, boxed it up for later and just sat outside, chatted and people watched. You can't get better people watching entertainment than at the Galleria. It is unmatched, people.

It was finally time for me to say goodbye and I was so sad. What is it about being with all of them that makes me not want to go? It must be our sweet Jesus. I loved getting to spend the afternoon with each of those ladies. They are each treasures and hilarious! I drove back to my house with such a full heart and an expectation of the next time I will see them, which will hopefully be in Atlanta. We shall see!

Me and sweet Bev! Loved seeing you, lady. You bless my heart!

Bev, me and Patty. Love this! And them!

Me and Missy! Missy, we might have to try this again. I posted it because it was too hilarious not too! Ha!

Georgia Jan, I love you!

Here is Melanie (Big Mama), me and my slice of Beth's Chocolate Texas Sheet Cake. It's only appropriate that the cake was in one picture. :)

Amanda, I just adore you. Thank you for being such a huge role model to me!

Fun group picture!

Kelli, me and Heather! Such fun ladies whom I grateful blog. If not, would I have ever met them? Love it. Heather was my partner while saying our verses. We both passed!

Georgia Jan getting her special treatment at Pappasito's! (Normally this hat is reserved for their birthday guests!)

The best lunch ever! I so enjoyed getting to hang with this special group of ladies. Blessings all around! Let's do it again soon, please?

Dinner + Girls + Bloggers = Blissful

What happens when you get a handful of bloggers together in one room for the first time? You have a blogup. Yes, I just made up that word. Taken from blog meet-up. You’re welcome.

And we had ourselves just that, a mighty fine blogup last night! It was so much fun and I’m pretty sure I went to bed last night laughing. But what else should I expect besides side splitting laughter? It was great not only hang out with some super fun bloggers that I’ve loved for a while now, but also meeting some new bloggers. Not necessarily new to blogging, but new to me!

The best thing about blogups is that you already know so much about each other. Or at least what has been shared on ye old blog! It’s kind of creepy if you think about it too much, but what most people like to call stalking, we just call blogging. It’s all relative, eh?

I was definitely the only single girl representing, but seriously? Could there be more fun people around? Goodness gracious. Let’s just say they bestowed a lot of wisdom on this single gal.

I may have been the only single one, but I most definitely wasn’t the youngest one since sweet Debra brought Mr. Jude with her. I was delighted and pretty much stole the child. I just needed that baby fix and Jude did not disappoint. A 4 week old baby melts my heart every time! Debra is every woman. And I thank her for letting me love on her baby.

All in all the night was a blast and I cannot wait to do it again. And soon! Thank you so much, Missy, for organizing everything and for the invite. (I'm thankful I checked my old email!) You’re awesome and I know we all appreciate you greatly. So, when’s the next blogup?!

It's not a blog event without a camera. Or 10 for that matter.

Here we have me, Ashley, Missy B., and Debra!

Me and Heather! (And just for the record, I'm not sure what my bangs were doing last night. It was pretty much an epic fail.)

So much fun! I think we had just finished laughing off our dinner. (Photo courtesy of Callie!)
I mainly stole this picture because I can only imagine what was being discussed. Let's just say I gained some wisdom. (The rest of the pictures I stole from Missy!)

Baby Jude! Love him.
All of the super fun bloggers! My only regret is that I didn't get to talk to everybody. Which means we'll HAVE to do it again. And soon!

A Neat Christian Guy

It's no secret that I've never dated anybody.

It's no secret that I'll be 25 this year.

It's no secret that that's a sincere desire of my heart.

It's no secret that I believe Him for that desire, but that it's just a matter of time. His time, not mine.

And although I'm afraid my timetable probably looks terribly different than His, I am still hopeful that He will not fail me. That is if I hope in Him, not my circumstances.

However, it's also no secret that even though it's not always easy to wait, and sometimes it's frustrating, confusing or lonely, He's in the midst of preparing me for something greater than myself. Something I can't explain and may never know this side of heaven.

A few years back one of my college girls lent me a CD series on dating by Matt Chandler. It was the first I'd heard of him and I was instantly challenged and encouraged. It wasn't like every other "dating" book I'd read, or singles series I'd heard, but it was raw, truthful and godly. I actually still have those CD's and was just reminded of them this morning!

You see, every morning while I'm getting ready for the day I listen to a podcast. I have a wide variety of pastors and speakers I subscribe to and among them is Matt Chandler. Just this morning as I was listening while getting ready for church, Matt was my podcast of choice and in the midst of this series he was doing, dating came up.

I'm not gonna lie, I immediately always tune in because I can't miss such pertinent information. Especially if it's godly, wise advice on telling me how to "wait" for my man, and later, be a better wife to my unknown future husband.

It's always "fun" to hear Matt get riled up because oh boy does that man have some passion.

His plea to all the singles was that he was FOR single guys searching for a wife. It is the biblical thing to do. To man up, take some responsibility, move out of the house, get a job and start to establish a family. I'm not sure how many fist pumps I did, but I assure you it was a substantial amount. I truly couldn't agree more, but after that I wondered, well then where the heck are all of these godly guys?

However, he wasn't done. It was then that he harped on the girls for 2.5 seconds to try and get through to them to STOP dating the "neat christian guys", the guys that just go to church, but to truly desire a godly husband and wait for him.

One that is pursuing his relationship with Christ first and foremost.

One that is a leader in his workplace and his home.

One that will pursue biblical manhood.

One that will love his wife the way Christ loves the church.

So often these girls meet these guys, start dating them, get married out of desperation and are miserable because he's truly not the godly man they desired.

No, he's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. But he's not pursuing the things of Christ.

But there is a huge difference in just a neat christian guy and a guy that is pursuing Christ whole heartily and longs to serve him both alone and with his wife.

I remember hearing this in college, and even talking about it in college with some of my girlfriends. But today is struck a chord because that IS my hearts desire. I don't want to settle for just a "neat christian guy." Not after all this time.

I desire a husband who is whole heartily devoted to Christ and serving him and I think it'd be so neat to be along for the ride. I'm believing God for this. I've always prayed for this, but now I'm believing Him for this.

What was the point of all my waiting if I just settled for something mediocre instead of His absolute best for me all out of desperation? How pitiful.

I can't say I deserve a man like this, quite frankly, I don't "deserve" anything. But our God is a God of grace and He desires to bless us abundantly.

As I think on these desires and prayerfully consider them, a few examples of relationships like this immediately come to mind.

Curtis and Amanda Jones, who both serve with Living Proof Ministries in different capacities, but both have a heart for ministry.

Ben and Donna Stuart, who serve at Breakaway Ministries at Texas A&M University. Ben is the director and the main teacher while Donna gets to use her gifts of leading worship and investing in college girls. How neat is that?

Afshin and Meredith Ziafat. While Afshin travels to speak all over the world, quite literally, Meredith gets to travel alongside him and encourage other believers using her degree in Biblical Counseling. It's not "official" per say, but it's a gift nonetheless.

This isn't even including all the amazing couples whom I'm privileged to serve with in my church, those of whom have decided to serve the Lord together, rather than apart. My parents for one, JJ and Anna Jones, David and Angie Martin, Greg and Allison Despres and countless others.

If witnessing all of these examples of service to the Lord with your spouse doesn't encourage me in my waiting for a godly husband, I'm not sure what will.

Mark my words now, I'm praying and believing God for a godly man who is pursuing the things of Christ, not just a neat christian guy who goes to church!

iPhone Fun

So, I was always wondering if the iPhone had an app for blogger. You know, because as the saying goes, "There's an app for that!"

Well lo and behold, my wish came true! I have just succesfully published this post from my iPhone. And what a boring post it is!

But honestly, have I ever mentioned my love for iPhone apps? They are entertainment at it's best. Just ask my roommates. We just had a gut wrenching laugh fest for 30 minutes over my new favorite app.

And that, my friends, is how we spend our Saturday nights. Be jealous. Very, very jealous!

Have a splendid Sunday, folks! I'm doing the "live" announcements at big church and am hoping for smooth sailing. There's not much room for bloopers tomorrow!

Random Thoughts from Lindsee

You should feel extremely lucky that you are about to embark on the most interesting post ever. That which is Random Thoughts from Lindsee. (In no particular order, please excuse the serious and mundane all in one rambling.)

1) This week flew by. Hello Friday! I love you.

2) There was a teeny wake up call that happened this week called an earthquake. I am in awe of the devastation and can't stop thinking about Haiti. The thought that makes me shudder the most is the fact that my little brother returned home from Haiti the day before the earthquake took place. If their team would have stayed one more day, you never know what might have happened. I think it goes without saying that I am so thankful the Lord protected their team and allowed them to get home safely before all the events happened. However, I can't imagine what other families are going through as they are still waiting to hear updates on their family members. My heart is truly so burdened! As much as I hate to watch the TV, I can't take my eyes off of it. Please also pray for Debra and her sweet family. They are in the process of adopting a little boy from Haiti, and my prayer is that this will only speed up the process of getting their boy where he belongs. I am believing the Lord and praying for that. Will you join me? Also, if you want to buy a shirt to support Haiti, Aaron Ivey has some for sale on his website. I've already ordered mine and can't wait to get it!

3) Last week I announced that I was officially tired of eating out. Since then, I have managed to eat out for almost every dinner this week and a few lunches. It's time that I get to HEB. And stat. The only good thing is that every night I've eaten dinner with some of my favorite people. Monday was with the family after Kevyn got home, Wednesday was with my sweet Hannah who did my heart some major good, Thursday was with two of my senior girls, Mary and Loribeth, and tonight is with my Jen. Next week I will try to do better.

4) Today is January 15th. Seriously? We're already half way through January. I'm shocked. Where does time go?

5) This week was "Demolition Lindsee's Office Week" and I'm proud to announce it was a success. I have cleared out all the clutter and feel like a new woman. I'm determined to keep it organized. I don't thrive in un-organized small spaces. Next up: re-decorate Lindsee's office and make it more cozy. Any ideas?

6) Sometimes strangers follow me on twitter. I don't understand that. They follow thousands of people, how did they find me? I'm boring. Then they realize I'm boring and stop following me. For that I'm thankful because I think it's creepy. And sometimes they're creepers. Sometimes I just don't understand twitter.

7) Hi, hello! How have we not discussed the new season of The Biggest Loser? I'm loving it so far. As much as I loved some of the contestants on Season 8, I'm hopeful this will be a better season all together. So far it has not disappointed.

8) Speaking of TV, I'm not usually a TV junkie, but this season might get me in trouble. Allow me to give you the line-up. The Biggest Loser, The Bachelor (don't judge me, please), American Idol, Glee, One Tree Hill, The Office and on top of all that, the stinkin' Olympics are coming on also. And who knows what I'm leaving out! Somethings gotta give. What will it be?

9) Did I tell you I got a new iPhone? Yes I did. Thank you to my sweet mom for letting me use her upgrade I didn't have to pay an arm and a leg. Although I missed it so much I'm pretty sure I would have given my arm and leg. Isn't that sad? Just being honest here, folks.

10) I had 225 un-read posts in my google reader last night. I'm going to make the call and "Mark them all as read" and start over. It's just too much. I'll get my groove back, I promise.

11) Well, I gotta run! I'm off to dinner with Jen, her dad and sister and then we have plans to see It's Complicated. I'll let you know how we like it! Hope you have a splendid weekend.

A Post Dedicated To My Girls

Someone once asked me how I find time to lead a small group on top of being the Girls Ministry Director at my church. I kind of chuckled because in all honesty, I can't imagine not leading a small group. That thought has never even crossed my mind. I adore my job, absolutely love it, but I attribute about 75% of loving it to my small group.

Yes, I love the girl’s bible studies, I love the girl’s retreats, I love the events and all the hugs, but through all of those activities, it's hard to actually get to know the girls hearts. Have one on one time with them. It is only through meeting with them weekly, doing bible study together, doing life together, listening to anything and everything, the serious and the mundane, and through honestly asking them the hard questions that I actually get to know them and invest in them and gain a love for them that is so from the Lord. Hands down, I'd have to say leading a small group is my favorite part of my job. (The only bummer is that I can't lead every small group of girls. But that’s nearly impossible!)

With that said, I just got to spend the entire weekend with my girls at our high school retreat. I always look so forward to these weekends with great anticipation, and this weekend did not disappoint. I'd say it's been the best yet! However, the only anxiety I had going into this one was that I knew it would be my last retreat with these girls. As excited as I am to get to know a completely different group come this fall, I'm going to have a hard time letting these girls go. I so treasure our group. It has been my pleasure getting to invest in them these past two years. They've so grown on me, and I hope, me on them.

We spent this weekend laughing, serving together at an area ministry sorting food, encouraging each other, learning together, worshiping together, and having fun together and countless other things. It is a weekend etched in my memory that I will not soon forget. I can’t forget to mention that we even zip lined together. Oh yes, yes we did. Our host home generously let us play on the one they had in their backyard and it was one of the exciting things next to laughing uncontrollably at 3 a.m.

I’m not going to lie, these weekends exhaust me. Going to be around 4:00 and 4:30 a.m. and rising at an early hour do not provide for much rest per say, but the Lord so redeems that time. I’m thankful to have Mondays off after weekends like this. Not everyone is so blessed! Plus, the investment that takes place in the wee hours of the night so outweigh the sleep I would get.

Another highlight from the weekend was that I had the pleasure of introducing Afshin Ziafat to our group. I had the privilege to sit under his teaching all throughout my time at Sam Houston State and I was so anxious for our high school students to meet him. He is a gifted and anointed teacher that is so humble and longs to give all glory and honor to Jesus. It’s incredible! I’m so thankful for him and his ministry. I’m also extremely thankful that I got to know his precious wife, Meredith. She could easily be one of my favorite people. So genuine and encouraging. I loved every second of having them here with us this weekend.

To say that Afshin challenged our group would be an understatement. It has been so neat to see how the students hearts have been stirred after hearing his message. They are eager to do something, to be the hands and feet of Christ and I truly couldn’t ask for anything more. Oh, I pray that they follow through and that their hearts were truly changed.

The Tom Edwards Band also joined us this weekend. We loved having them come to Houston! For the past few years they’ve led worship for us at camp in Florida, so having them on our stomping grounds was exciting. If you’re looking for some new worship music, seriously check them out on iTunes. What’s neat about having them come back time and time again is that they start to form relationships with some of the students and that’s fun for everyone involved.

After weekends like this past one, I’m extremely humbled that the Lord allows me to do this as a living, for such a time as this. So many people ask me if I’ll ever teach, or how long they think I’ll be in ministry. Never have I been able to answer that question! I’m the Lords and I want what He wants for my life, not what I desire and want. If that means serving here for the next 10 years, then so be it. If it means teaching in 2 years, then so be it. Only the Lord knows. All I can say is that for this time, He has called me to serve and love these girls and for that, I am extremely grateful. I love them dearly.

Thank you, sweet girls for letting me love you, serve you and invest in your life. It is my greatest pleasure.

Tuesday Bloopers

A few months ago I did the "electronic" announcements during our church service. We clearly film them in advance, however, I had a hard time that day saying all the right things. I spent more time laughing and kicking myself than I did actually getting the right information on the screen. Just yesterday they made a blooper reel and sent it to me. I was super entertained by it and I hope you will be too! Happy Tuesday, folks!
