September resumé

It's been nearly 3 weeks since my last entry here. I've been still experimenting with Facebook. It's been fun to rediscover some people from different eras in my lifetime. I still observe that I'm on the older end of the Facebook member continuum in terms of my own age.

We had a birthday bash for my 4 year old daughter on Sept 12. 6 of her friends came to her BUG PARTY, which ended up going very smoothly. Unlike our son, she doesn't have as many friends, at least casual ones. He knows the names of everyone in his class, while she doesn't. She's learning how to stand up for herself better, which is and will be important for her.

September 21-23 was a conference with Erwin McManus of Mosaic Church in Los Angeles. I ended up helping recruit security and it ended up working out well in this area. The conference was excellent, with good and interesting sharing and teaching, as well as interaction between the participants. He definitely has a lot of valuable experience and insight into western culture today. I'll be reading more of him in the near future.

I started reading Bill Hybel's "Just a Walk Across the Room" today. It seems like a valuable book.

One of my current projects, both for ourselves and for la Fonderie, is to research the most effective ways to do e-mail communications. This is a high priority project on my agenda for October.

Next week looks to be a busy one, with another art exposition starting this Thursday night at Le Pavé d'Orsay of la Fonderie, then another play reading the following Monday. The weekly Bible studies at le Pavé d'Orsay start this coming Tuesday as well.
