E-News from Tom: 6/24/11

Hello E-News Friends,

I heard the Oak Bridge service this past weekend was great and we have some new music video stars in the making! (I’m sure their “thug rating” has to go up a notch or two to really give them a legit chance. Maybe a couple trips to the local tattoo parlor can do the trick. How about it fellas?) A special thanks to Patty Burks who delivered an excellent God -honoring message on overcoming hardship. And as usual our band is “off- the chain”! (Don’t say it. I already know my cool factor is going in reverse, but with rappers like we have who cares!)

This week will be another week you won’t want to miss at the OB. If God speaks to your heart half as much as He did mine (and the interns “they call themselves OBterns”) this past week, you will have a lot to think about. That is a very good thing! See photos of our Haiti trip (with which your generosity made possible!), hear some stories from the week, and feel the presence of our Father as He guides us to a greater level of love for Him and His children. All in all, it should be another “Funday Sunday”! Aren’t you thankful we have a church like that! (I am!)

I hope to see you all this weekend as we honor the One who gives truth, grace, wisdom, and life. He is worthy of our trust and time!

In His grace and with His love,

Tom

PS I’ll have a whole new description for you of the term “good road” Sunday. 90 miles in 9 hours! Port Au Prince to Bohoc (in an un-airconditioned bus!)…..Just another day in Haiti!

PSS The movie “Soul Surfer” Sunday evening at Keller should be a blast! It’s free....so sign-up to reserve your seat this Sunday morning!
