Singing
The first day of The Shepherds Conference was great! The speaking was excellent, the fellowship incredible and the singing is unreal. There is no way to describe what 3,800 men sound like when singing A Mighty Fortress Is Our God!
On the road again
Last week Lyndy was able to come with me as I traveled to Seattle for Airmen’s business. It was great to see her mom and have some time for just the two of us. A friend stayed with the girls and they seemed to enjoy their time too.
This week Bill Troxel and I are traveling to Southern California to attend the Shepherd’s Conference. I attended last year and I’m looking forward to another great time of teaching and fellowship. Look for updates as the week rolls along.
Shepherds Conference
We just finished making all the reservations for Adam, Art and Bill (the Elder board of Nenana Community Church) to attend this year’s Shepherd’s Conference. Adam went with with a friend last year and really enjoyed it. He talked so much about it that he convinced the other guys that they should go with him this year.

Too Cold To Fly
This January is setting up to be one of the coldest on record here in the interior of Alaska, according to an article in today’s Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. It has been colder than -20f or it will warm up then snow for what seems like an eternity. What this has meant for us is that it has been too cold to travel by plane. So today as I’m clearing my desk of months of backed-up paper work, wishing that I could be out visiting folks in the bush, I am watching some of the videos on our YouTube channel. This video is the most popular of all and for good reason, bright sun, fresh powder and a smooth touchdown (if I say so myself).
