SLI Party

At the SLI party itself (5pm-Whenever) we sat and talked for a while.  It was great being back together again - sad that not everyone could make it that night :( .   There were 8 of us, out of the ten that are in our class.    Then we ate supper, had some great talks, laughs, memories and so forth.   Following supper we headed downstairs to watch the Missions Trip video and Slideshow that I had handed out earlier.   We had many good laughs at the memories and stuff that we watched.  Much of it was fast-forwarded through just for time's sake.  After the movie, we sat and talked for a while and then a few people left, and the rest of us talked some more.   At one point we went upstairs and Wayne Kuepfer asked us all, "how are you using what you learned in SLI today?"   It was a great question and it got us all thinking.   It took us a bit to actually answer the question, but it also prompted other questions that kept a good somewhat deep conversation going.  It also showed in more ways than one, how Awesome God is!   Then Dana mentioned that it was getting late and she was heading home but shortly after she left she texted Brooke to mention that her car was covered in toilet paper.  Apparently Janette's brothers had did it, no surprise, while we were watching the movie.  

We all were outside for a long while talking and such.  Inside and outside, particularly outside, I had some Great conversations' with Wayne and Loretta Kuepfer (Janette's parent's).  Our conversations were mainly on how great God is and some deeper "God thoughts".   I am soo thankful for those talks and they are great memories.   Loretta spoke some things that I think God wanted me to hear.  Much of what she said were things that I really needed to hear.   God was speaking directly into my life through Loretta and challenged my thinking.   He gave me new insights and such from what He's spoken to Loretta.    God is good.
