With school finally here, this also means that Light Force will be kicking off very soon. We have a lot going on and a lot to do over the next few weeks. I’m guessing that the first 4 weeks of LF will determine how good or bad things go for this school year.
Like always, I’ve got golf. We had a nice practice round this morning and a party at one of the student’s house this afternoon. They are off Tuesday and regular practice begins Wednesday. We have an important league match this week in Grosse Pointe to cap off the week.
With LF, this is a communication week. I’ll be sending out postcards to the students and letters to the parents. Hopefully, I’ll finish the new website design and get that online as well as finalize most things for this fall. The big “new thing” that we are launching right now will be the midweek Bible studies. I am excited about this since this will truly show where some students are spiritually. This will also help our Wednesday nights be more appropriate for where that group is at. It was just so hard to try to squeeze the Bible study into the 90 minutes we get, plus more than half the students wanted to have nothing to do with the regular study. So, while we will all be working on the same thing, Wednesday night will be more complete for the majority.
Wednesday & Friday nights are party central. We have our Fall Kickoff party on Wednesday and our first tailgate of the year on Friday night followed by a bonfire. Also… it’s time for the peach festival. http://www.mipeachfest.com/ Unlike a lot of lifelong residents (of which I am not) I think the Peach Festival is cool. We are looking forward to experiencing it a little more now that Kristen is able. (Last year Paul was only a few weeks old) The noise isn’t as bothersome as people complain about, nor is the crowdedness. In fact, we found the whole thing to be a lot of fun last year and we are all pumped up about it.
