Yesterday I met with Dr. Bob Rhoden. He is the District Superintendent for the Potomac District of the Assemblies of God. The trip around 495 was great, not the typical trudge.
Dr. Rhoden is a man who inspires awe. One of those people whose life is so credible and authoritative that you are just in awe of him. At least I am, and it was a thrill to share my vision for the new church and discuss with him the plans that are unfolding. It really was a meeting designed for Dr. Rhoden to get to know me and build a relationship. Unfortunately, he'll only be in office till July. But he said that after he gets away from office hours every day he'd like to travel and visit church planters. Spend the day seeing our ministry, advising and praying over us. I need to remember that, so that I can invite him to Severna Park.
He reccommended that I go, meet and pray with the former pastor of Severna Park A/G who lives in VA, and have her and her pastor Rev. Blackwell pray over me.
I went to bed really early last night...before 8:00 p.m. I didn't feel well. I think it's fatigue. I am realizing that I need to gaurd my time. I had my time in good balance for the last couple months, but it's been ratcheted up with the green light on this plant.
Today I meet with Pastor Don Cox. He is our presbyter, and he'll be an important partner. More on that later.

did you know that your profile has your astrogical sign, etc. listed as well? I am assuming that is something that blogger.com does once you enter your birthday? Surely you did not enter that information for your profile, right?
I don't know my sign. I'll see if I can delete it. Thanks. ed.
