PA Update! David is just beginning his fourth rotation in Internal Medicine this week. Location - SLU Hospital. So far so good. I like 'em already for selfish reasons. They just approved us to be off from Good Friday through Easter Sunday! And guess who else is free the same days?! So our plans are set - We will be in northwest Arkansas all three days. Can't wait! And thanks for lifting David up in prayers during his last rotation in Hematology/Oncology. He got an A! And worked with an incredible doctor who taught him well. And from the sounds of it, his presentation of a patient case study went over with flying colors. Phew, praise God! That was a pretty intense two weeks in this little apartment.
I just got back from a Bible Study Fellowship retreat in Milwaukee. Try to picture 2600+ men and women in one place, studying 2 Timothy. And imagine the sound when we all belted out "In Christ Alone" on the last morning. Now, that was something! If you can't picture it, maybe this will help. This is after our evening session on Saturday. And a great pic of some fellow leaders in my class next to Lake Michigan (taken in the hour we had between a session and dinner). Love these gals!
Wondering how we all got there? Check it out. And follow my advice...If you ever run across a restroom on a bus, use it while it's NOT moving. That's all I'm sayin'. Meanwhile, I have a cool stat to share. BSF has over 244,000 adults attending classes worldwide. And over 55,000 children. Which is my new department. Yes, I am teaching children. We know that was a call from God. So far they haven't caught on that I have no idea what to do with kids. Mostly because I have an awesome topic to focus on! Not to mention a great team of leaders and a sharp, fantastic supervisor to observe.
The weather, as you are all aware, has been fantastic. Therefore, we have been quite the little bikers. I took Monday off of work and David got out of his rotation early, so we went for a bike ride followed by a trip to Chill, a local frozen yogurt bar. One lap around Forest Park, and then about a mile down to the yogurt shop. Not bad for a Monday! Wondering how absolutely ridiculous we look in our helmets? Wonder no more, loved ones.
Most of you are probably relieved you don't have to claim us due to distance. I don't blame you. When Debbie was in town we did the same loop around the park. But Debbie rode David's bike, which seemed stuck in very high gears. If you knew the hills we took, you would knuckle-bump her five times. Debbie - You are in GREAT shape.
I had better scoot and start working on dinner so I can spend some time with David. He is on call tomorrow, which means we don't know what time he will get home. And I just learned that I will be teaching the Bible lesson on Tuesday to our 5th and 6th graders. That's 25 minutes of lecture time. Yikes! Prayers are appreciated! It's the last study out of Ephesians. And then I think we go back to the book of Acts. I will let you know how that goes.
Have I mentioned how much we miss all of you? It's a fact!
