The PF Women Team at our Annual Team Retreat ~ 2018 Today on Seth Godin's blog, he said: It's tempting to decide to make a profit first, then invest in training, people, facilities, promotion, customer service and most of all, doing important work. In general, though, it goes the other way. Yes, it does. If you are waiting to make a profit before you do these things, in my experience you're not going to make a profit. So many organizations, ministries and churches are struggling with financial issues. I know your pain. As anyone who follows our story knows, our ministry was in a ton of debt four years ago when I came on as director. Since that time, we've gotten out of debt and turned a profit every year.

Yesterday was a great day at Celebration! It started with our KidZone Ministries doing a presentation in the morning service. They did a fantastic job and we can't wait to see what unfolds next! Larry and I were surprised to have some special guests in the service, Blake and Dee Richert, with Carings Hearts Ministries. They are missionaries now and are a couple who were/are very special to Larry from WAY back. He met them when he was just a young teenager, coming to Jesus as Christian Life Church in Trafford, PA. They were a big part of the church there and a true example to him in his growing up years. This is the second time they've visited us at the church when they are back in the Florida area. This time is they have made Tampa their home base for this season of their ministry so it's possible we will see them much more. We went to lunch with them after the service yesterday and reminisced of many old times at Christian Life. It was good to catch up.
Last night was Holy Roller night at Skateworld. We had more people there than ever before and it was so fun. We had a costume contest as well as a Trunk or Treat. Jordan won the adult speed skating race. Fun!!
I have jury duty today but I'm thinking positive and making the best of it. :)
Thanks to all who have prayed about the three dogs getting along. They are doing better all the time!
