The last two Tuesdays I have been out of town (a total of 10 days) visiting my family in Virginia. It was a wonderful chance to see about 12 different family members, including my parents, brother and his family. 5 of these family members recently moved there from the Houston area, so it was twice as nice as usual!
Even though I was there for worship this past Sunday (sermon attached), I am still a bit under the weather, as I returned home to New Mexico with a cold. It's still hanging on today, 1/2 a box of Kleenex later. So, I am off to a slow start.
I'll be working from the manse today, so if you need to call me, feel free to do so.
This week:
Wednesday 9:00AM - Exercise, Eat and Pray
Wednesday noon - Dutch Treat Dames meet at the Cornerstone Deli
Thursday - 7:30AM I'll be at the Radio Station to talk about our Rummage Sale Drop Off Days (August 25-26) Listen in on KQAY 92.7 and then KTNM 1400
Friday 9-? I will be in the office with Sharon
Creative People Unite! You know who you are :) Less than 1 month away is the Quay County Fair and we need your help to plan a booth display! You can talk to Julie Sursa ([email protected]) or Kenna McKenzie ([email protected]) for details. The booth theme hasn't been officially selected, but I have a few ideas. I'll be reaching out to a few of you for your thoughts. (I have an idea for a theme)
Men's Breakfast August 5th 8:00AM - Men of Tucumcari are invited for the 3rd Men's Breakfast on Saturday, August 5th. It's free. You don't have to be a church member to attend.
