We are really looking forward to our next booking for "The Story of Gomer".  This is a very special one to me because I am going home!  We don't get up to Syracuse, New York (Where my folks still live) very often, and it has been five years since we did our play in my home town.   My home church is Grace A/G in Syracuse, but there is this really cool church that some of my friends went to while we were growing up, located on the East side, called Church of the Resurrection, or "Church of the Rez" for short.

People ask me all the time how we get bookings for our ministry.  Anyone involved in a traveling ministry will tell you that getting bookings to keep your ministry going is an ongoing challenge.    I loved talking to Pastor Lou Giordano, senior pastor of Church of the Rez, because first of all, he is a really neat guy, but also because he absolutely embodies how the Holy Spirit touches a pastor and how God opens the door to where He wants our ministry to be.

Wow- Idaho was amazing.  I had never seen a real snow covered mountain.  I had a wonderful time with all the ladies at the Assembly of God Southern Idaho District's Women's Retreat.  Thanks so much to Gail and all the amazing women I had the pleasure of meeting in lovely Cascade, Idaho at the Trinity Pines Retreat Center.   We all drew closer to the Lord during our weekend, and received a very special blessing.  Praise be to God, "The Story of Gomer" touched many hearts at the retreat, and I was blessed to be able to come home with a very special Pastor's wife named Cathy. 

We are just back from a wonderful weekend of ministry at Grace Assembly of God in Whiteland, IN.  Geri was the main session speaker for their first ever ladies retreat, and there were about 160 women in attendance.  Friday night, Geri did "Gomer", followed by a Saturday main session where Geri tailored a message to their "Life is a Picnic" theme.  Of course, we all know life is NOT a picnic...
