LifeHouse

I didn't get to see Eliza at LifeHouse tonight, however I did get to meet Cecilia Kong and Samantha. We were asked by Kenny, the den leader of this particular Lifehouse, to go door-to-door in the neighborhood and "represent" -- sort of a preview of what F.A.I.T.H. will be for me starting next Tuesday.

During the F.A.I.T.H. Lite excursion we ran into a couple of potheads, an East Indian family and a grandmother who each wanted nothing to do with us. Cecilia had never done this sort of thing before and was nervous as hell. Samantha has too much experience yet is so mousy was unable to really get anyone's attention.

We met a guy named Mike and his family. He's going through some stressful times, his wife is going back to school and they have three kids. They were doing the barbeque thing when we happened upon them. They were apparently cutting back from their eating out ways by staying in because of a recent car wreck which sort of bled them dry.

They were nice and let us pray over them. Samantha got my phone number and I got Cecilia's. Overall, it was a productive evening.
