We are spending part of the weekend with childhood friend of mine from the Detroit, MI area. The car trip is only a little over two hours long, but when we got off of I-94 we made a wrong turn.
O.K., I should tell the whole story. When I printed out the mapquest map, I didn't enter in my friends entire address, just the city, state, and zip. So, here we are driving by the gigantic Rouge River Road Ford plant. It's mostly rust, and the towns around it are fairly run down.
We got ourselves headed in the right direction, but it took about 20 min. to find the right street address.
Right now I'm sitting in my buddies living room. It's the end of the evening, and they are laughing at me, because I'm able to type while I'm talking with them and not looking at the keyboard.
Gregg and Jennifer and I met when we were in our early teens while at Bible camp each summer. Our relationship was via US Post all year until we got together at camp. It was the highlight of our summers. Then during high school and college we would travel to visit each other throughout the year. They look the same to me, but I know we've all aged considerable since our early years.
I gave my standard Parmenter Missions presentation. It was about the goofiest the presentation has ever been. I've known these guys for so long, that it was difficult to keep it serious the whole time.
It's been a busy week of presenting in homes, but I enjoy it much more then presenting to large groups. With a home presentation I'm able to connect with people and answer questions. I'm also getting to know people in a new way.
Tomorrow Michael and I sing at Greg's home church, Covenant Community. We're looking forward to it.
