Amos of Tekoa and Keith of Odessa

Amos of Tekoa was a tree trimmer and spoke for God... Keith of Odessa is NOT a tree trimmer, but does attempt to speak on behalf of the Lord...

Keith of Odessa is beaten, scratched, sore and somewhat bloody from trimming trees, but they are done!

Ah, the joys of home ownership!!

Tuesday @ Bethany!

Tuesday @ Bethany means Mother's Day Out!

Our building will be full of little ones!

We are blessed to have them visit us twice a week!

I fought the lawn and the lawn...............................

I fought the lawn and the lawn............................... lost!

Although it did get in a couple pretty good shots!

Wow! Not having to do lawn work for the past 14 years has gotten me spoiled.

Maybe I'll stick it rich and be able to buy my wife a lawn boy (we don't have a pool and won't be getting one!) to do it for me!

What a life!

Sunday! Bible School, Worship, lunch with our music minister, hospital visitation, board meeting, Elders meeting, Deacons meeting... Monday starts a new week of ministerial adventures... What a life!

First Service at Bethany

   The first service at Bethany Christian this morning went pretty well!  We had 90 in attendance, which considering that it was the 4th of July and typically a huge vacation weekend is quite amazing.

   The congregation is very friendly and loving. They seem very pleased to finally have a pastor after being without a long time.  Rev. Clark Ford did a fine job as their intentional interim.

   We are very blessed and honored to be able to serve the Lord in Odessa, Texas!
