Wanna play?



Yes, its true. We have conned churches into paying for us to play games all day. Yes, it is fun but yes, it is ALL day long.

These are a few pics of what our days look like right now. The games, the guitar lessons, the constant admonitions to share... all of that has been a good intro into this life and a great way to get to know these kids. The playing will continue, but we are working towards more structure, building opportunities for meaningful conversation and what Tim Woodroof calls "teaching moments".

By the way, when you come visit, make sure you work out the rules for Checkers before you start playing. They have their own rules, and they are the MASTERS of the board, no doubt about it. In approximately two thousand games, I have never, NEVER won. Neither has Holly. So, if a talent for Checkers is your spiritual gift, come on down. We need help.

Didn't they teach you how to play checkers at ACU - missions 101? :-)
