Aaron failed to mention in yesterday's blog that he ended up winning the Sword Drill Championship. Such a humble man he is. We really had a lot of fun at church yesterday. You would think all the adults were kids doing a Bible sword drill. Drew loves playing with his new friend Eliza and running around. Our pastor is excited about reaching others. We are doing an outreach push in April and have set up a point system. Points can be accumulated by bringing visitors, scripture memorization, coming to church each service, going visiting, reading the book of Acts, and others. Our pastor has a goal to see everyone in the Akron community get a personal invite to church. We are praying that by next winter we will be able to purchase a van with the churches name on it to pick up children and adults for church. Our pastor's wife is so sweet, loving, is very firm in her beliefs, but yet demonstrates a meek and quiet spirited pastor's wife. She is so practical in our ladies sunday school class and has been a joy and blessing to me. They both love the children and have a passion to see the families in the church grow.

The plumbers should be here around noon or so. I am still dreaming over here of taking a nice hot bath in my own tub:) I need to take pictures of the renovation that is going on. We have renovated this whole house almost and we failed to take before and after pictures. Oh well, prayerfully we won't have to do this again.
