A very good day, complete with a win from the Air Force Falcons football team. They played USD (University of South Dakota) and as it turned out, I was able to catch up with Dr. Olson, a family friend and fellow trumpet player. The office work tonight for a couple hours rendered me 95% ready for tomorrow. The remaining 5% (sign up sheets, registration preparation and tent set up) left for tomorrow morning will leave a mark...but....it will get done.

Tent set up. As I have said before, instructions are occasionally viewed before diving into something. Example. All the tent materials were laid out on the Fellowship floor. Simple. Put the poles through the fabric and lift the structure until tent is on all fours...

Nope. After a better look at the instructions I know that 'this assembly takes two people'. The tent remains on the Fellowship floor. My goal:

1. get to the church before the 8AM service start,
2. find the second person to the assembly team
3. assemble the tent
4. start registration for the Fall retreat
5. next time, follow the inner nudging to find help and set up earlier.

Ministry, make that, anything in life can be difficult. Sometimes reading instructions makes it easier, but then other times, two more hands just lifts the burden. Code: single forever?

Signing out, sending prayers,
Mary
