Family Update

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I'm posting a little family update and asking for your prayers. Being the adventurous youth minister that he is, Chase managed to break his right foot and sprain his ankle at the youth lock-in early Thursday morning. He landed on a basket ball while playing basket ball. I'm not sure how he managed that but he did. He will be wearing a very stylish black boot for up to 6 weeks. He is doing fine though. I guess it's just a little inconvenient. The lock-in went well. Thanks Jarrod, Chris, Devon and Mike Jones for helping!! Pray that his foot heals properly and timely.

Also on Thursday I took John Caedmon to the doctor because he had started running a high fever. I found out that he had ruptured his left ear drum, had an infection in both ears and has a little case of winter bronchitis. He is doing well although sleeping poorly. He comes up to me often and says "I want to hold you Mommy." Our prayers are that his ear drum would heal perfectly and that he will not have long term hearing loss.

Both of these events are just a little inconvenient and it reminds me to focus on what is really important this Christmas. I am looking foward to spending time with our families and celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ this Christmas.

Thank you for your prayers and may God bless you and your family!

New Funny and Amazing Video Site!

Hello all, and Merry Christmas to you,

I'd like to announce the opening of a new website I've been working on: Safevideo.com There are over 300 videos available on the site now, and below, you'll find some of the highlights. Please visit the site, and let your friends know about it - I'm hoping that God will use the advertising on the site to raise revenue to help pay for Seminary next year - and for those who don't know....I (Chase) will be looking to finish my Seminary degree next year after a small NINE year break!

And now, more on the new site: The most important thing is that Safevideo.com is safe for work and safe for home - that means the videos are clean, and to the best of our judgement non-objectionable (please let me know if I miss something). That doesn't mean they are boring: Some of the best videos on the net are at Safevideo.com - check out the top 18 list on the front page!
