We were talking the other day and thought that we should do a post on what we've been up to besides cooking :)
Most of you probably know that we spend most of our non-work time serving with our church. Right now we're coaching an Upward soccer team, which has been fun because Josh teaches kids "the Beautiful Game", as it's known around the world, and Angie is team Mom! She loves to make sweets for them to enjoy after every game. We only have one more game before the season is over and we're really going to miss team Cameroon - we're named after the African country, not the cookie :)
We're also teaching the 3rd and 4th grade BFG (Bible Fellowship Group) on Sunday mornings and helping with the church's Awana program on Wednesday nights. You might be saying to yourself, that's A LOT of activities with kids... you would be correct! But we love the little boogers and, more importantly, we want them to know Jesus!
On Tuesday nights at our house we host a BFG for young adults. We started studying the book of Acts a couple of weeks ago and continue to be amazed at what He did to establish His church! It's humbling to think the same Spirit that moved among those early believers does the same thing today!
Josh is a part of our church's Men's Ministry which is meeting weekly right now to read through and discuss John Piper's book Don't Waste Your Life. It's been a challenging read - Piper's books always are. Josh read this book in college, but has found that reading it with other men that face the same challenges has made the book a different experience. The book is all about helping us to see that a life that doesn't value Christ above all things is a wasted life. We're also really excited because Josh was recently voted to serve as a deacon in our church!
On Monday, Angie and our church's Women's Ministry are beginning a new series called "Treasures". It's based upon Titus 2 and involves a Bible study as well as learning some new practical skills to put to use in the home! She is very excited to begin this study because she loves spending time with the other women in the church.
Stay tuned... we'll post soon about what's going on at work!
