"The first time we gathered to pray here at Riverside was really special. Although
it did initially feel a little awkward as we were figuring out the dynamics of group
prayer, by the end everyone expressed how powerful the experience had been for them.
Our hearts were filled. I was touched as Zach shared that half way through he opened
his eyes and felt surprised that there were still only five people because the room
felt so full."

"Additionally, our boys volleyball team won their first game the other day! It was
super hype and I’m proud of the boys for their overall effort to do well this season."

"I am certain that each and everyone one of us will get to a point that will force
us on our knees. It may come in different forms but at the end of the day we will
have something that will weigh us down... It has taken a while, but I have finally realized that a new coat of paint won’t make
the stain go away, but the right pair of hands will always be there to help you scrub
it off."

"Ruth got the honor of actually pulling it. Although I don't know if she saw it as
an honor at the time. Most of the nail was completely detached, but there was one
bit that was still very fleshy and hanging on! After quite a bit of tug-o-war, Ruth
won and off came my nail. Praise the Lord the nerve block worked through out the procedure!"
