Hey Gang,
Thanks for your participation in the youth service. We had a few technical difficulties but I felt great about the service over all.
Thank you readers, singers, ushers, and greeters for your great work.
Our next service will probably be in March. Be thinking of ideas now. I want to let you guys and gals really get your hands dirty with the next one. You guys rock and have lots of creativity and heart.

Funny Story
Thought you might like this one.
At one point during work today, I had two tables in my section. At one table was a man and his wife. He was an auto mechanic and was wearing a work shirt with his name patch on the front and an American flag patch on the sleeve. A fork's throw away at another table, a man sat with his wife and their son who couldn't have been more than 9 years old. As I handed the kid his drink in the cute Friendly's kids cup he asked me a question loud enough for everyone in the room to hear. "Sir," he said, "is that man a cub scout?" pointing to the mechanic. I mumbled "no," walked away, lauged really loud on the inside and then shared the laugh with all of my coworkers. Is he a cub scout.

Hey Gang,
I'm going to try something new. I am going to use this site to keep you abreast of what we are doing. This should be interesting.
