Week 3, Church, Photography, and some fun times

Well it has been a week so now I need to post again. Lots of stuff has gone on in the past week. As I mentioned in my last post, I did go and register my car, get Oregon License Plates and A license. The license actually came in the mail so it is nice having that. Friday afternoon I went out and did some photography in Tualatin at this one creek/bird habitat place. I didn't really get and good shots of birds, but did see and Osprey which was pretty wicked. Here are a few pictures I took that day, that place was gorgeous.It was great for my to get out and just do some photography! Later that night we had a birthday party for one girl from the church, Amanda, and had a bunch of people come over to our house to play games. That was a lot of fun! It was nice to just hang out with a bunch of people.

So now on saturday, we Finally got some BEAUTIFUL weather. It has been overcast/rainy for quite a while so it was very nice to get some beautiful weather to spice things up a little bit. The three guys in my house: Nick, Paul and me decided to take our shotguns and Nick's handgun and go off into Oregon country to shoot clays and just do some man stuff. We had an amazing time, here are a few pictures to show.

Men and a bunch of guns work well together! It was a lot of fun! As you can see, we were actually right up by snow too, which was awesome!

Ok, now to the 3rd church meeting of Colossae! This week was really good and I am just continually stoked on where God is leading this church and what it is going to look like. This week Chuck taught out of Matthew Chapter 22, talking about when the Saducees ask Jesus what the greatest commandment is and he tells them "Love the Lord your God with all your heart soul and mind" In this passage Chuck was really showing the importance of drawing near to the Lord and making God your primary focus. Before we can serve and be "Jesus" to the world, we need to be in constant commune with God. Though we want to serve the Lord through doing things, we need to first be filled with the Lord and we will naturally live for Him through that. We had about 25 people again this week and I am just continually blessed! After another hard week on the Job search, being able to worship the Lord together has been great. This week we sang Oh Praise Him by David Crowder and Lord You Have My Heart.

If you can, pray for my job situation, because I hear you need a job to survive in the real world?!?!
