Well summer is reaching it’s midpoint here at the Bridge. The water bottles are stacked waiting for new labels. This year the guys were able to get  duringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringduringwater and vitamin water these bottles will be used durring move in. Wow August is almost here and still so much to do!

We just finished our Back Yard Bible Club, God is so awesome we were able to see over 40 kids this week. Coming up in July is our Vacation Bible School: July 19-23. We can’t wait for our PowerPlant team (a mission team of high schoolers that assist church plants) They will be helping lead the lessons, music, activities and possibly labeling water bottles.

Please pray for our students that are on mission over the summer we have students working at summer camps, Serving nationally internationally, and serving locally. Please also be in prayer as we continue to plan for our August mission trip to Wisconsin. We will be working with a church planter and helping with launch. Thank you for your prayers and support!

Dinner Party!!

I am a planner this is true. Now that we have been living with Granny for a bit I thought it would be fun to have a little dinner party to catch up with all the couples we have not seen in a while. We invited Chad and Whitney, Nathan and Erika, Ricky and Christina, Phil and Sarah and Donovan and Jenny (Christina’s sister) It was lots of fun. We had plenty of food! I made wonderful Strawberry BBQ. Love the recipe. After dinner the guys headed down stairs and the girls chilled upstairs, we played Quelf…such a great random game. The guys played Monopoly.

            But the best part of the whole evening was before the guest arrived. Josh and I cut the veggies, boiled the corn and prepped the other things. I sired the chicken on the stove top and then put them into a preheated oven…that was ice cold! The oven had been on for at least 30 minutes and nothing no heat, nothing. I was really nervous because the stove top was working so I went and got Josh. He turned the breaker off then on.  Nothing, Great I broke Granny’s stove. So I walk into the living room and ask “is there a trip to your oven?” she said “no” then proceeds to the kitchen…well there is a trick…see the oven is so old that there is a manual button, if the manual is not on then the oven only works by timers, oh my, but it works now!
