Weekly Update

This past week went by way too fast.  All week, my parents were in town, and we had a blast showing them around town, headquarters, and sharing baby time with them.  Ali is discovering how to laugh recently and she has been much more expressive.  It's been a hoot to see her interact with people.  Thank you for your prayers concerning my parents saftey and health.  Both of them got back home safely yesterday, and beside the incident I already mentioned in a previous post, both left perfectly healthy.

We had the chance this past Saturday to go to a open house where Brie is teaching.  It was hosted by the Student Nursing Association, and it was really neat to see all the professors and staff she interacts with. 

This past Sunday we went to Common Ground Church and they were talking about their strategy for staying effective in reaching the community of Indianapolis and being a biblical model of a church.  Rather than growing larger and become less intimate, we are going to grow smaller by spreading out and develop more churches, so we can be more intimate and effective sharing the love of Christ with those we live around in our community.  To many this doesn't make sense.  At first, it took me a little while to understand, but now I do and I can't wait to see the results.

This week, please pray that Brie and I would find time for each other, pray that we would find time to be in the Word, and that we would be delibrate in the conversations we have with our co-workers and sphere of influence.

God Bless!

Brent, Briyana, and Aliyana
