city living: genesis

as kim and i start this venture of planting a church in st louis i hope to try and chronicle as much as i can. so as you can tell by the title of this post this shall be called "city living". catchy, i know.

today we have lived in soulard for a week and two days, with much time spent running to and fro to litchfield to wrap things up. we did the proverbial wrap up this past sunday with and amazing day spent honoring Jesus with our family and friends. as i reflect on what happened sunday i am thankful and amazed. it was an amazing day and i am thankful to everyone who was involved and so pleased with how Christ honoring it was. litchfield will be a special place for us to remember and know that we are always welcome to come back. the ordiantion service and events was amazing with my father, grandfathers, uncles, mentors, and best friends there. again thank you to all who made it a day about Jesus.

so far not too much exciting has happened here in the city. i swore never to return to walmart after we left litchfield and found myself there the day we moved in, oh well. the next day kim and i explored and found some places in soulard that i think we can go to instead of the house that sam built, though i have the feeling that the places we found were a little more like sam had imagined in the begining.

kim is adjusting to her new setting at work and commuting once a week back to litchfield. she has an amazing view of clayton, mo from her new office window. she is already in love with the market and enjoys shopping at vincent's market literally right down the street.

we are praying everyday that the Gospel would go forth in the way we live our lives and that we would take hold of the opportunities that Jesus gives us to share the Gospel and share about what is going on with August Gate. momentum is building and we are so excited about what God is doing and is going to do for the Kingdom in st. louis.
