Immersion Retreat - October 24

Met with Bill Easum today. It was a great meeting. Trying to download any or all of the different meetings we will be in on the spot like this, without processing, is not going to be helpful to anyone. So I'll focus on the travel part.

Here's the other guys on this team I'm on. Most of you know the other dude in the middle...Tim Doering. Left to right of the other dudes you don't know is Rob Eshelman, Dave Ulm, Dave Weiss and Galen Hackman.


I couldn't resist this one...you Napoleon Dynamite fans will love it! Vote for Pedro! And he's a real dude running for a real office!


We toured the USS Lexington, a WWII aircraft carrier that's now in Corpus Christi harbor. It was so cool. Here's a few pics.

The mighty USS Lexington...


That Japanese flag on the tower is the spot where a kamikaze fighter attacked it!

Here's me being tough sailor-dude.

Here's me in the brig. I was so tough it broke a rule of some sort.

I also operated a 50mm cannon. You turn it with your hands and shoot it with your feet.

This is an F14 Tomcat. It is so tough looking and it's what Maverick and Goose flew in Top Gun which is one of my top five movies of all time.


For those of you who were worried about us, we did get all our luggage today, so I was able to change close. Good thing too, cause I think things were starting to get a little pungent.

This evening, we spent some time in our study of the book of Acts and discussion around what it means to re-discover what a New Testament church looks like. The trip has been great so far, thanks for praying for us.

I feel the need...the need for speed.
