Becky & I had a great week at Willow Creek Community Church at the praise & worship (arts) conference with Eric and 6 members of our Worship Team. We appreciate all who helped with the "fund raisers" to enable us to go. We appreciate the time away. We came away with ideas that we will explore in the future to enhance what God is doing at Southside.

I must share the highlight of the trip was yesterday when Becky & I took a taxi to the airport. The driver was a nice young man in his 30's and when we told him we had been to Willow Creek, he was familiar with the church. He immediately said he needed to get his 6 year old daughter in church. God open the door for us to share the Gospel with him and he was so open and is ready to come to Jesus. We got to the airport took quick, but we gave him contact information and he is supposed to e-mail us. We believe with all our heart that God is drawing this man to Himself! Pray for him, his name is Brian.

I say all this to say that there are so many out there that are waiting for you and me to share Jesus with them!
