So anyone interested knows...we're just having the Ezekiel class tomorrow (10.45) at EO. We'll begin a new study in 2 weeks, after Winter Camp, at 9.30.
Mom came home on Wednesday and is moving around some - she'll be recovering though for a few weeks.

This week, I was blessed enough to be able to, along with a bunch of the New Jersey/New York people, attend the year-end study on Isaiah with Gary Fisher in New Salisbury, Indiana.
I wish I could adequately share with you all the level of encouragement I experienced. There are just so many people out there, young and old, who truly care about the Lord, and whose lives so brilliantly reflect His love. The fellowship we had, for just this one week, was so inspiring - and it is the common love for our Lord that binds us together.
So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time - houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions - and in the age to come, eternal life.
-Mark 10:29-30
Every day I see how true this is.
Love God with everything you can; He alone is worthy.
Hey hows it going? I have heard about everything that goes on over there but I haven't had the chance to yet. God willing I will get over there sometime soon!
Oh Eddie, I so wish you were down at FC! You are so encouraging. I'm glad you've been able to grow so much spiritually and that God has been able to work through you to have His word preached to others!:)
Come visit!
Wow. That is just plain creepy... especially when you read wiki's theories! Well, it's nice to know that it is practically down the road (pun intended) from me!
I was teaching Mark 10 to Diana yesterday and I couldn't help but think back to Indiana - the same way you just did - and realize how amazingly true that is. There is certainly nothing that we can ever do for God that could even compare to all of the blessings He showers on us
There are a lot of things I could (and probably should) be doing right now...such as packing for the week-long trip to Indiana tomorrow, cleaning up the (large) mess in my basement, or just getting some sleep...
But, I just wanted to thank everyone that contributed to the weekend's events. So many people in so many ways...from opening their homes, to helping with food, to helping pay for the hall, to leading songs, to praying, to giving lessons, to just being part of the whole thing...it was only because of everyone's efforts that the weekend was such a success.
Tomorrow (Today), a bunch of us are driving out to Indiana for the year-end Bible study with the Fishers, so please keep us all in your thoughts and prayers.
I'm really just about to pass out, but again, I can't adequately express my appreciation for everyone's desire to encourage each other this weekend. We are truly blessed to be able to enjoy such times and such gifts from our Father.
To all that couldn't make it, I'm sorry - hopefully you can make it out next time. You really did miss a great time.
Keep God in the forefront of your hearts and minds. Resolve to grow nearer to Him each day.
Sounds wonderful, and I'm really hoping we'll be able to be around when you're doing something like this again. Glad it went so well though. I'm sure others appreciate your work on it!
Hey Eddie. My internet window wasn't as wide as your post, so when I read the first line, I thought you were going to India. (The "na" of "Indiana" were cut off) This seemed like something exciting, and I stopped reading right there just thinking about how much fun it would be to go to India. Then I discovered my mistake... Well, I guess Indiana might be ok too!
The entire Bunting clan is coming - Tim, Ben, Mrs. Cami, Mr. Don, Heather, Jack... and I guess if we have to, we'll drag him along. We don't need a ride, thanks. :)
Newark girls said that you had them (they were all asking when "Eddie's sleep over" was). And I guess u got Udeme and Idara. Ill check on the Washington crowd tonight and get back to you. =)
Yes, that's correct. I have a few questions for you though. What is the game plan for Saturday? Are the classes at the EO building? And, what time do they start?
Okay, there's a chance that I won't be there Friday OR Saturday. Plans could change last minute, however. So, I might end up just showing up anyway. Sorry. Don't hate me :/
