Prayer and Healing service starts

On Tuesdays, a new prayer and healing service started at Grace Memorial Church. This is a traditional church where experiencing God is something new. Truths about prayer, healing and the Holy Spirit that we have taken for granted over the years are new topics for this congregation. It will be exciting to see how God moves in this church to bring some new wine, healing and blessing to these beleivers.

Lost Maples Nature Park, TX

It's fall! The leaves are turning colors . The good news is, you don't have to go to the Northeast or East coast to see them change. Right here in Texas at Lost Maples you can see the Maple trees change color. It's a beautiful 5 mile hike through the park. The scenery is lovely and as you can see in this pic the temperature is perfect. Los Maples is in the Hill Country of Texas about 75 miles from San Antonio. There is camping, fishing and hiking. Be prepared to compete with many people as the fall season comes and more people go to see the leaves change.

Dinner and Movie

If you are in the Austin area and want some great Bar b' que, you must check out the "Salt Lick" in Driftwood, TX. The ribs, sausage and brisket are excellent as well as the beans, cole slaw and other goodies. It is a long drive to get there but the Hill Country scenery is awesome. The smoke pit is inside the building and you can see the mesquite fire and watch the meats cook to perfection. After a stop to DQ for a blizzard and malt we stopped to watch the movie American Carol. You will laugh all the way through and finally enjoy a decent movie that makes fun of Mike Moore. Check it out!
One more note of interest. I always had a hidden desire to learn to dance. Going to wedding receptions in the past I felt awkward watching others dance and not being able to join in. Well, I've learned the Texas two step. the west coast swing and the cha, cha, cha well enough to get out and have some fun. This has been a real joy to get out and have some different kind of fun. So if you ever get around the Midnight Rodeo in San Antonio, there are lessons on Sunday nights and afterwards good country music to step your heels too.
