I can't believe it's been more than a month since I last updated our blog. Things went a little nuts in the days and weeks following our end-of-the-year party. I left town for 10 days that weekend, and while I was gone Paul ended up in the hospital. He is slowly making his way back to "normal" but life has been off-kilter in the meantime.
Still, life is good and we hope to get The Gathering gathered some during the summer. I'll be floating a possible June F&F date soon, for those who are around.
News:
- Tricia left for the Phillipines on April 24th, to do a few weeks of volunteer mission work at an orphanage there. She will return soon. Tricia became an official member of FBCA2 in April.
- Lindsay returned from Egypt just in time for our party. Welcome home, Lindsay!
- Zoe left yesterday for Botswana. She will be there for 2 1/2 months doing AIDS policy work. Keep her in your prayers. Zoe became an official member of FBCA2 in April.
- Adam, Lauren, and Joe P. graduated. Congrats!!!
- Joe A. graduates with his M.D. this Friday. Congrats, Dr. Ahn!
- Becky became a sexton at FBCA2 and moved into the apartment upstairs. Yay!
- Lauren M. had a car accident on Thursday. She is okay but on painkillers, and her car was wrecked pretty bad. :(
- David was delighted to discover that he can park at the church on Wednesdays during the summer.
- Gad is in the Phillipines until sometime in June.
- Gaius became a member of the FBCA2 worship board and has quickly become very involved in the behind-the-scenes work of the logistical details of Sunday worship.
- Danielle, Chantalle, and Carrie are all home for the summer.
- Carole is in Italy for 10 days as a part of an elite vocal ensemble performing an original work by one of the U-M School of Music professors.
I hope I didn't miss anyone. If you have news you'd like to report, please check in! We'd love to hear from you.
Btw, I am *so* looking forward to my birthday visits from Johnny and Orlando. Y'all did get that arranged, right? ;)
