A weekend to remember...
I just realized that I never came back and filled in more details about the film festival. I texted in the last entry from my phone, so I was confined to 140 characters.
The festival went well. We didn't have very good turnout, there were only about six that aren't regulars, so imagine our shock when we saw that three students had indicated that they'd trusted Christ! They were also all men, and all on the cross country/track team.
I've had a chance to meet with two of them so far, and begin going through some of the follow up material that Crusade has produced. Monday we talked about assurance of salvation. This Monday we're talking about God's forgiveness. Please keep these guys in your prayers.
Sarah's been giddy all week, because tonight we're going to St. Louis for the weekend for Family Life's Weekend to Remember conference. I've no doubt the puns will be flowing freely.
We've been saying we're going to a conference since we got married, and we've finally found a weekend when we can do it.
One of the things I'm looking forward to is a tour of Missouri gas prices. Missouri has some of the cheapest gas in the nation (they make up for it by not maintaining their roads). On Wednesday we went to Warrensburg to plan with UCM students, and we had to drive past $1.57 gas, because we had 3/4 of a tank. In a Honda Civic, that means we'd be putting in about 2-3 gallons. Not really worth the stop, even on principle.
