I got back from Waycross, GA yesterday after spending 2 days with my son and his family. What a blessing. This was a real joy for me and my 3 grandchildren. The time there ended too quickly.
I was asked to meet with the Iron Men from my son's church Wednesday at 6 a.m.. They needed some encouragement but it was me that was encouraged. Destination Church now has about 30 Iron Men and they are on fire for the Lord. I spent the entire hour pouring my cup into their's. I'm telling you, these guys are the real deal.
It is interesting to me how Johnny finally gave Iron Men a chance about a year ago. My son is a true servant and has always enjoyed mentoring men, one-on-one. He finally reached a point that he was frustrated as there were too many guys and too few of him. SO ... I asked him to try meeting with 4 or 5 guys at the same time. I poured out the simple plan and he went with it. Now there are 5 or 6 groups and they keep on growing.
Mike McClintock, our Elder Board chairman made about a dozen Iron Men leather bracelets and shipped them to Johnny. The guys love them and wear them with pride.
I guess some of you heard about Griselle hitting the deer that totaled her car. Praise God she was not hurt and, just a few month ago I added some collision insurance on that old Pathfinder. I'm really looking forward to seeing her this Thursday.
I may be speaking at a small gathering of recovering Christians ... mostly bikers ...on Nov. 11. That will be another blessing for me. Your prayers, as always, are appreciated.
Im so glad to find out that GRISELLE is unhurt. I pray each night for you and your family and the people around you that they all see there hearts get on fire for the lord. Where ever you go your family always brings the lord into peoples lives.

I wish that were true but thanks for seeing the positive parts and allowing for the flaws. I have many but, just like you, I know the One who loves me and it's the same God who loves you Dave. Peace my friend.
