Just got back from a week long vacation in Rehobeth Beach, DE. There is nothing like a week without voicemail, email, or mail (for that matter).
I always come back from vacation reenergized and ready to go. I'm excited about our the fall season at NCC. I feel like we've got seven years of momentum behind us and we're going to give the next couple months everything we've got.
Coming back from vacation always reminds me of a couple things. First, I'm blessed to be doing what I'm doing. I wouldn't want to be anyplace else with anyone else doing anything else. I love pastoring NCC. And I have a renewed sense of passion and purpose. Second, I'm grateful for our team. Less than two years ago there were two of us on the team. There are now ten of us on the team. I have complete confidence when I'm gone that we're not going to skip a beat.
By the way, we caught 1 minnow, 3 tadpoles, 7 butterflies, and 47 frogs on vacation!
