We had a great camp meeting and Ten Commandments Weekend this year. It’s the first time we combined them and had them here at 3ABN’s Worship Center.
There was a great turnout. I’ve put some photos on Facebook (link below), and then I’ve added a few other photos below that.
On May 11, after leaving my mom’s place, I headed to the Indian Creek Camp for the wedding of Erin Worf and Chris White. Erin was one of my regular weekend buddies when she was living in this area for a while. Her dad works at 3ABN.
The hall was decorated really nice. Lots of lights, candles, lanterns, and greenery. There was beautiful music playing too; I later learned the album is called “Celtic Wedding.”
I recently returned from a weeklong vacation to Sweden, April 20-28. Although it was a bit tiring at times, it was a great experience. It was awesome to see my friends at LifeStyleTV — the Nybos, Pedleys, and Ramonts — as well as my friend Ellen in Stockholm. And I also made some new friends whom I hope to see again some day.

When I returned from Sweden, I had two shocks:
First, I learned the sad news that my friend and coworker Kenton Rogers had turned in his resignation. His last day will be May 9, I believe. His family is moving back to the West Coast, to be closer to their relatives. Kenton is a very talented and spiritual person, and will be greatly missed at 3ABN. He plans to start a small publishing house at a location yet to be announced.
That means we are looking for someone to replace him in my department. You can read the job posting announcement on my Xanga blog. If you know of any qualified individuals, please pass the word along. We are looking for people who are professionally employed in graphic design, not hobbyists or persons wanting to enter the field (although we make exception for college graduates with no employment history).
Just before GYC, I was with my good ol’ buddy from LifeStyleTV, Claus Nybo. On the way home that December 14, we stopped in West Frankfort to look at Candy Cane Lane. Candy Cane Lane is a series of streets that are decorated for the Christmas holiday, and is an annual tradition for the people of West Frankfort. At the time we drove through, most of the houses were not decorated very well, but the final street was incredible. It was like a cross between midwest lawn decorations and the Las Vegas main drag. (See the video below.)
