Prayer Group and the Redneck

I started a new program at Arnold tonight called Prayer Group. Very original, I know. Basically what we are going to be doing is, well, praying. I worked up a kind of prayer journal for the kids to use. The idea is for them to write down things they are thankful for, concerned about, any prayers that have been answered, or goals they have. Then as they pray use the book to remind them what they want to pray about or to look back on what they have already prayed for. I am real excited about it and hopefully the kids will like it and embrace the group.

Last night I felt right at home. We went to a wedding in the middle of no where. It was out side and muddy so we had to park a long ways away then were carted to the location in the back of a pick up truck. There were people wearing rubber boots and a bluegrass band was playing at the reception. Classic redneck, I went home missing home.
