             I sat down many times over the past two months with the hopeful intension to write down some recent story or lay out some recent thoughts. Each time walking away from the computer, either because I felt there was nothing to say or maybe because things have been so fast pace lately that I can hardly slow my head down enough to back track my thoughts. Its been crazy. I took on another class in pursuit of an education. Although I think the most education I am getting these days is coming from hands on experience and watching. Watching Jason lead this team in Tulsa is teaching me so much. Living with Shawna is teaching me a lot about determination and courage to not back down to the world. And as always, I am reading a lot.

             Today I and lately I have been thinking about home. The Appalachian mountains and many friends. If to many minutes go by I start to think I'm crazy for ever leaving such a wonderful place. But then I'm encouraged to continue on here in Tulsa. Our Grand Opening is this weekend, we are all so excited to get started. Keep us in your prayers. Pray that God would use us despite us and that many people who are hurting would find peace.
