Bedtime Stories

Greetings fellow bloggers – those who read and those who write. It’s time for the Sunday night edition of ‘Bedtime Stories’ – brought to you by Cookie Crisp cereal.

Here are some things that I resolve to do during this upcoming holiday week:

  • Wear a green shirt tomorrow to celebrate my Irish heritage in honour of St. Patrick’s Day. (I’m 50% Irish in case you didn’t know.)
  • Eat Chinese food for Lunch tomorrow to celebrate my love of foods that are green – such as broccoli.
  • Go to Publix tomorrow afternoon after work to do some serious shopping for food. Yes Venus and Kristina – even though I don’t cook my own food I still eat food.
  • Get a tattoo on my lower-right thigh with Jesse.
  • Wash and dry bath towels twice this week.
  • Prepare for the WORM. (This only makes sense to my coworkers.)
  • Shave on Tuesday night.
  • Go out clubbing with Paul.
  • Attend Life Group this Wednesday night and arrive before Nancy.
  • Serve at the ‘Moonlight Easter Egg Hunt’ on Good Friday night. (Visit easterinhomestead.com for the 411.)
  • Induct another ‘Chris Day’ into ‘The Chris Day Club’.
  • Get a haircut with Travis at Woody’s Barber Shop.

Be sure to return back here tomorrow afternoon for another fun-filled day here on the blog. I may even have a fresh new edition of ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’.

Until then remember this:

The Major’s Walk-A-Thon

Sky: Clear
Temperature: 67°F
Relative Humidity: 100%
Winds: Calm
Barometric Pressure: 29.94 Rising

My thoughts:

1.  This morning most of my walk occurred before sunrise. I walked from 7:17 AM to 7:42 AM. It was a basic 1.3-mile walk around my neighbourhood, but I did so counterclockwise rather than the normal clockwise. I like to take risks like that !  😉

2.  The Spring holidays are here. Tomorrow is Palm Sunday, and that leads in to Holy Week including Good Friday and Easter Sunday. I can tell that the holidays are here. A lot of my neighbours are on vacation now. There are a lot of empty parking spaces all around.

3.  I passed an adorable little black cat at the southern tip of my walk this morning that could have passed for a ‘Baby Boots’. Boots was my home buddy for 12½ years from 1995 to 2007. ‘Baby Boots’ looked at me with loving eyes. He just knew that I am a friend of felines.

4.  What an amazing music set I listened to on my iPod shuffle during my 25-minute walk:
– “Breathe You In” – Thousand Foot Krutch
– “Glorious” – Ever Stays Red
– “Nuisance” – John Reuben With Matt Thiessen
– “New Skeptic” – The Fold
– “Strong Tower” – Kutless
– “Live Like We’re Alive” – Nevertheless
– “Awake” – Seventh Day Slumber

5.  After the walk I ventured over to the former sanctuary of Life Pointe Church to help stuff thousands of Easter Eggs with candy in preparation of this MASSIVE event that’s gonna rock Homestead on Good Friday. After that I hung out with most of the prayer group that meets at the original church building every Saturday morning. We all did Lunch together at Loly’s Restaurant in the Old Dixie Center just up the road. It was a great time of fun, food, and fellowship.

Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

1.  It was still twilight outside at 7:30 AM when we arrived at the movie theatre to transform it into our corporate place of worship that we know as Life Pointe Church. Just across the street at Campbell Drive Middle School Christ Fellowship Church was setting up their brand new location. I think that our stretch of Campbell Drive between our two places of worship should be renamed ‘King Of Kings Boulevard’.

2.  I learned this morning that Anne J. personally made all of the black tablecloths that are used on top of all of our Hospitality tables in the main lobby. They seem to be slowly disappearing too. I have a feeling that Anne will soon be making a few more for us.

3.  With Lisa and Luciana setting up the Kids’ Life Registration table every Sunday morning you just know that there’s going to be something different added to the display to enhance it even further. Pastor Paul stated announced that the Kids’ Life table and the Guests’ Information table are not in direct competition with each other. Thanks for the reminder Paul. I passed on that information to Terry and Patricia.

4.  Pastor Paul led this week’s teaching, and it was all about worship. It is the Spirit that refers to our expressions of worship, and it is the Truth that refers to our lifestyle of worship. We do not ‘go to’ worship. We do not ‘attend’ worship. We live worship. It is our lifestyle. Just as we do not ‘go to’ church or ‘attend’ church because that signifies that a church is a building. We are the church – 24-7.  Wherever we go, and whatever we do we should always be the church.

5.  We are just 12 days away from the biggest Easter celebration that Homestead has ever seen. It all happens on Good Friday March 21ST from 7 to 9 PM at Harris Field in the heart of Homestead as we present the ‘Moonlight Easter Egg Hunt’.
