Let us pray.......

Bob is headed off to a confrontation he knew would eventually happen, but has been dreading for 5 years. Long story, but the short of it is that a person who is (was) a member of our church has been incarcerated since summer 2001 for inappropriate conduct w/kids was released this last weekend. He has made it known that he is expecting to walk onto the church grounds Sunday am and not be hindered at all. Bob checked w/the local PD and while they cannot hinder his religious freedom, by all means we can to protect the children that God has entrusted to our care. Soooo...Bob and a few deacons are headed to the hotel he & his wife are staying at (2 of the victims are the grandkids they have custody of, although they're both in juvie -don't ask right now) to confront him about openly repenting, etc...we shall see how it goes. Bob said this afternoon that he's dealt with more than he ever expected in the 7 years we've been here. In just one kid, we have atttempted suicide, drugs and cutting; molestation issues from the above mentioned situation....lots of things that the college level degree does nothing to prepare you for! Anyway, God has been good in equipping those He calls, namely....us! I'll let you know how things go later....Chelle
