Daniel, Candice and Applebees.....


Today we had our AWANA conference in Big Rapids. We had 17 AWANA leaders from our church there. The theme of the conference was "Follow the Shepherd".

During one of the sessions, Bob and I managed to sneak off and meet Daniel and Candice at Applebee's right in Big Rapids. Candice flew in this morning and will be with Daniel through Monday morning. It was so fun to see them and have lunch together. They are just great and it's exciting to see their relationship growing! Thanks so much for coming, Daniel and Candice.

We then went back to the conference, where our church was awarded a plaque for following the "10 standards of Awana" and for our excellent club. We praise the Lord for such dedicated AWANA workers and leaders - and for over 150 kids that come each week.
