"Strange things are afoot at the Circle-K."

That is one of my favorite lines from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. If you have never seen the movie..."It's Excellent." (Guitar Riff here, for those of you who have seen it.) Bill and Ted are invited by a time traveling George Carlin (Rufus) to go back in time, collect historical figures from the past, and pass their history report so they can become future world leaders in a world that is driven by their rock band, Wyld Stallions. All this action takes place in a time traveling phone booth that appears at the Circle-K gas station where Bill & Ted hang out.

Lately I feel like Ted did when they first meet Rufus in the parking lot of the Circle-K. "Strange things ARE afoot at the Circle-K.", or at least at the Parker house. God has done so many things over the last couple of weeks to confirm His call for us to Port Washington, and into the world of church planting. People we have never dreamed would or could, have come to us and said they want to partner with us financially in the work we will be doing there. We have a long journey ahead but God has been showing us already He is there ahead of us working. I've been praying that God would prepare the fields of Port Washington for a harvest. I've prayed for relationships to be established, harvest workers to emerge, people to come to know Christ as we build relationships there. All God is doing on this end now lets me know He has already begun doing those things in Port Washington. I can't wait to see how all of this goes. Thanks for your prayers and support family and friends. Good things are on the horizon. I have had several people asking how all this church planting "stuff" works. Next post I will try to fill you in on some of the details of what kind of church we will be planting and how it will all work.
