I woke up at 6:00 this morning and was thrilled to find that the cable was fixed so we are going to be able to watch the Super Bowl. I fixed BLT’s for breakfast before we went to church.
What a great service. It is so good to be able to meet together for praise, worship and teaching of the Word. The Holy Spirit is moving mightily here on the Island. Following services we were privileged to witness yet another baptism in the Gulf of Mexico. The weather was great and the Gulf waters were quite smooth. It is so exciting to see both young and the more mature accepting Jesus as their Savior and then following the example of Jesus by water baptism. It is such a blessing to be able to attend services on Sunday mornings. We are loving it and will sure miss it when we get back to Missouri, where once again we will be working on Sunday’s. It is great to work with Christians, but fellowshipping together is very important.
Following the baptism after church this morning, we went to Virginia’s on the Bay for lunch. I had the Cajun Dump (crab legs, Gulf shrimp, sausage, corn on the cob and new potatoes, I brought half of it home for another meal), JW had his usual, Mahi Mahi. We are now settling in, preparing for the Super Bowl.
The game wasn’t to start until 6:30 (we thought) so JW had the TV tuned to some old L&O reruns and at 6:00 decided to watch some of the pregame. The game was already going. JW thought the paper said 6:30 central but must have been eastern. We started watching just as the Packers made their first touchdown. The Super Bowl was pretty much what JW thought it would be, (he predicted Packers 27 – Steelers 24). Not a real exciting game and the halftime show was terrible. The Black Eye Peas butchered their own songs. We missed the first 12 minutes of the 1st qtr so missed the beginning of the game also, BUT thanks to FaceBook and local TV coverage, we were unfortunate enough to hear Christina Aguilera sing (and JW used that term, sing, very loosely) the National Anthem. In JW’s opinion, she disgraced the song. Her voice was all over the place, up and down and to top it off, she got the words wrong. Who hires these people anyway? The Blackhawk hockey player, Jim Cornelison, who sang the National Anthem at the start of the Green Bay-Chicago playoff game was a 100 times better than Aguilera. Just JW’s opinion.
Football is over, time to move on to more important stuff. After JW thinks about that for a while, he’ll tell you what it is. Stay tuned . . .
