You are my audience. My friends & family who want to know what is going on with me. And please, if you read what I write, and are glad to have read it, leave me comments. I think when this becomes what feels like a one-sided conversation it's discouraging. Thanks!
Some news items:
- We moved to a new apartment through Keith's resident manager job, and it is wonderful. It's a two-bedroom that's over twice the size of our place at Lamoine Village. It really feels like I am a woman with a home. We are still just praising God for it. He taught us so much about contentment in our last two tiny places, and we are so thankful for that. Now it feels like our territory has been expanded.
- Keith is the new worship leader at the Vineyard church here in Macomb. They lost their former worship leader a few months ago, so one Sunday Keith and I guest-led worship there. To make a long story short, they loved us & created a paid position for Keith as the Sunday morning worship leader. It was hard to leave the Crossing, but the guys there commissioned us with all the best wishes; praise God.
- We first got to know the folks at the Vineyard when I started working at Cafe Aroma a few months ago. I was in the market for a local coffeehouse job and some good friends of mine had worked there in the past. So when they needed some help, I volunteered & it was a great fit. Cafe Aroma is run by the Vineyard church. I've had a vision for coffeehouse ministry for probably close to ten years, so this was a neat opportunity for me. Right now I'm working Tuesday through Friday 11a to 2p, and we often play music there on Friday nights for Open Mic. So come by & visit sometime.
- Speaking of Cafe Aroma, Nate & Mere's band Leaving the Boats came & played an amazing show there on October 24th.
- I was in this movie with Shia LaBeouf.
- I got myself a new Moleskine journal & I love it.

i am so happy for you guys and your new place. space is always good. i hope to aquire some someday. :) but i know what you mean... i've already started to appreciate the space we do have... and not only has it brought jeremy and i literally closer together- but i often wonder if we did have a bigger place, if i'd end up in what the rich folk call "the den", with jeremy in ... another den. having a studio definitely forces you to talk :) which you and i both know is one of my favorite things to do. (poor jer is probably praying for a den).
what is a moleskine journal? scratch that... i will search it online :)
i would love to hear you and keith sometime... did i know you guys sing?
*em
You and your coffee shops. . . :)
When did this vineyard thing happen? We have someone staying at our house right now, who is from south africa, and his dad is one of the "leaders" of the vineyard denomination in SA. maybe you guys could be friends, with all that vineyarding in common.
the end.
