Baby heels? Craziness!

'TIS THE SEASON TO BE CHERRY!

Yes, I am sure you already know I am addicted to cherries. Well, my tally is up to two pounds eaten already. That has all happened in three sittings. Mmmmm...

I re-introduced my friend Veronica to bings on Wednesday. Now, she has joined the "cherry-lovers club." If there is one.

What kind do you like?

DAVE MARTIN THIS WEEKEND

Jeff just got off the phone with Dave Martin. He is flying in tomorrow and will be speaking on Sunday. It is going to be a great service with a timely word!

It's official!

We are officially the parents of Seven Addison Knight.

CONGRATULATIONS QUARRY GRADUATES!

The Quarry, School of Creative Ministry held it's graduation on Friday evening. I am so proud of our graduates. If you have walked through the doors of The Rock Church, you have been impacted by these fine young men and women. They have been across the globe and down the street, practicing their faith and refining their character. It really can't be put into words because each one walked a different journey. Each one surpassing milestones they had set. Some slated for full-time ministry and others business and teaching which we all know is a life of ministry.

We are slated to have the largest class ever, in September. I expect God to move mightily. Although we currently give credits for our courses, we are working with Portland Bible College on some exciting credit/degree news. I will release the news when it's confirmed. We have students coming in from out of town and out of country (Guam) so if you are interested in hosting one or more in your home, please e-mail me at mknight@trclife.com. Applications are still being accepted.

Pastor Jeff's blog had a fantastic post you'll want to read.

Dogs are clean!!

This is the best groomer! Their grand opening was this past Sunday. It is just off of Main and Ferry. Check them out.

I NEED MORE...

"I need more toys and playgrounds in my life." That's what my friend told me yesterday. I love it! It is so easy to lose the laughter and the pursuit of fun. What part of Life says boring? Our experience? The news? The thought of math class? (Sorry, Mr. Baker.)

Jeff went river rafting yesterday. He is such a great example of determining your atmosphere. He can be in the darkest circumstance yet always draws on God, the source of his joy. He is serious about life, God and people but every room is still his playground!

Find your fun today.

Happy birthday Pastor Ron!

Mommy, why the flower?

Jason and Alexis

I cannot believe how much my nephew and niece have grown! I hope to visit them soon.

At the races with Daddy!

NEW SERVICE TIMES

I am excited for the service time change.

It will be healthy for our volunteers, great for families of young children and balancing the services numbers out.

See you at 10 or 11:30 AM!

UPDATE FROM SOUTH AFRICA

From Laraine:

Today, Tuesday, was going to be their last official ministry day. Last week was spent doing more personal one on one witnessing, visiting some villages where raw sewage just runs down the middle of the streets. 

 

Tonight they get to experience a nice African restaurant for dinner, and then tomorrow they'll be leaving to go on an overnight Safari.

 

Laraine said over the weekend they got to visit a lion park and hold baby lions (one of her personal prayer requests before she left) and feed giraffes... How cool is that!!

Masses of boats

I don't know if you can see the mass of boats but this weekend it was
at least six times this length!
