Texas- Week One Review

We've been in Texas for one week! Here are some first week highlights:

AWANA
We had the chance to share at an AWANA program at the church I grew up in. We talked about the importance of a team to help a translator be successful in a foreign country. No matter how many people are on our team or how strong the team looks like, the team will fail without the power of the Holy Spirit.






Celebrate Roanoke and Baseball
It's weird returning to the place you grew up and seeing all the changes that have happened since you were there last. This annual celebration of our city has really become quite popular. This year they were expecting around 30,000 people to come and celebrate. There was a lot of food, drinks, music, and football- that's right a big screen that was showing the University of Texas vs. Oklahoma University. Let's not discuss the outcome of that game!







This is our buddy, Luke. He was the ring barer in our wedding. He's in the 4th grade! It's weird coming back to kids that grew up.






The Texas Rangers are currently leading the American League Championship Series. Game 1 had a ridiculously long rain delay, and Game 2 ended in extra innings with a Grand Slam for a Rangers win! Game 3 is on tv right now, and I'm hoping for win #3 even though the Tigers just took the lead as I typed out the previous part of this sentence.

This past Sunday we had the opportunity to share at the church I grew up in. We had a potluck after church. I love potlucks... maybe I just love free food. Unfortunately, we didn't take any photos of our share time. But, you can trust us, we were really there! :)
