After Easter Stuff

Karen and I had a good, but busy, Easter week. The Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter sunrise services, not to mention the Easter services, were good reminders of Jesus' sacrifice and the promise of new life in Him. However, after lunch on Easter, we just lounged around and visited with Sondra and Glen, who came to visit.

Last Thursday, we went with Jason to the 2009 WSU Men's Basketball banquet. Garret Stutz sat at our table. We had a good time.

Jason and I are participating in the Kansas Mennonite Men's Chorus, which had it's first concert of 2009 yesterday in Lindsborg. 300 men singing gospel and church songs is amazing. I am reminded of the Promise Keepers' choir shirts that had the caption "Real Men Sing Real Loud". Amen to that! For those who are interested, the next concert will be Sunday, April 26, at Memorial Hall at Bethel College, North Newton, KS. Another option if you can't make it is the 2009 KMMC CD, which will come out later this year for $15.

And wait! there's more! If you call within the next 30 minutes, ...

Update on Joel: For the past couple of months, Joel has been in the desert in Nevada doing research about desert turtles. This is only temporary, however, and Joel will return to Lawrence in a few weeks. I am looking forward to hear the stories he will have to tell. Here is a link to the outfit he is working with: Great Basin Institute

Here are some links to some poignant songs rom a couple of old Jesus Freaks:

Don Francisco:
"He's Alive" and "Jehoshaphat".
"Steeple Song"

Keith Green:
There is a Redeemer
Asleep in the light
Your Love Broke Through

FYI, Keith Green was killed in a plane crash in July, 1982. LoRee and I saw him in concert two months before his death.

The Job Hunt: I am still looking! Some good news: I will be teaching two algebra courses for Hutchinson CC this summer, and perhaps other courses, on a part-time basis, this fall. However, full-time employment has been so-far elusive. Anybody want to hire a computer geek?

Later!
