Surprise Staff Meeting

Wednesday morning, we had an impromtu staff meeting.  It isn't completly uncommon for us to have one, but it quickly began to feel like I was the only one who did not know why we were there.   I am not always the most perceptive person and I had witnessed a lot of odd things going on that morning.  I was too busy trying to get the video feed set up so that we could have a web meeting. 

I perked up when several from my office began to read the following poem:

Twas a regular Wednesday, right here in Fin Aid

Are we here for new regs? Are we making the grade?

 

But it’s not a staff meeting and it’s not Q & A.

We celebrate something quite different today.

 

The story unfolds in our own Father’s heart,

Who gathered us near, tho’ we’d wandered far.

 

Once we were strangers, but now we belong

To the family of God, tied with eternal bonds.

 

Now one of our own is spanning  a gulf

To add to his family a new baby Wolfe!

My office raised more than $1200 to help us bring home Boaz. 

We are continually humbled and amazed that God is using so many of those around us to bless and encourage us.   We are in awe of His goodness to us.
