As we continue to prep for the upcoming gatherings in Lansing, and try to coordinate the Detroit gatherings....

I wanted to let you know that I will be able to focus on these two projects more after this week when my new job is settled.

Thanks for the paitence!

Oh What a Night!

Around 4pm today, I was working at my desk as the end of week 1 was coming. Melody phoned to tell me that our daughters had left with my sister for the night! So, a little while later we got ready and headed up to Cadillac and ate out at Hermons European Cafe. Spring Hill had given each of us $25 gift certificates for this place at Christmas, but we never get a chance like this to go out.

We both had the special of the night, a T-bone steak with Koniak sauce, grilled garlic, capers, grilled onions and mushrooms. It was probably the very best steak I have ever had! After dinner, we went to the local movie theater and saw "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" - a good movie - and while we were waiting for the movie to start, a couple from Spring Hill sat down behind us! So, we all went out for a cup of coffee afterward and just laughed a lot.

Then, Mel had me stop by a store and picked me up season 4 of Seinfeld for my Father's Day present! Man, this has been a GREAT day!

OH, and if that all isn't good enough, I got 3 new interviews for next week! One is in Grand Rapids, another is in Cadillac and the other is in Traverse City.

Anyway, I just had to post how great this day was. It is so rare for us to have this type of night together. Good night all!

New Cohort leaders

Friends,

As we expand east-ward through Michigan, we are in need of people that can take on coordinating roles. My prayer is that we launch a new cohort in Detroit this year as well as re-launch this Mid-Michigan group. If you are interested in helping to coordinate these gatherings, please email me.

Peace,
Chad Farrand

Eric in Nicaragua

Pray for Eric as he left this morning for a mission trip to Nicaragua.

For those in the Lansing area, I am preparing to come down to re-launch the cohort. Please let me know what days work best for your schedule.

Chad
