  Below are a few pictures from the past couple of weeks. nbsp;  We threw a party for Josh's b-
day on June 18th and had some friends from Lynchburg come up and hang.
nbsp;
 I love it when people come to visit me here and see what it is that I am investing my life in.
nbsp;
 I honestly couldn't imagine being anywhere else in the the world.
nbsp;
 It's funny,
 most of you know how much I want to go to Ireland and how that has been a desire of mine for years.
nbsp;
 I can honestly say,  that if I had to choose between going to Ireland for the summer and going to Maryland to work with Horizon for the summer,  I would choose Horizon.
nbsp;
 There's an excitement here that can't be explained.
nbsp;
 There's an undercurrent of the Spirit of God that is getting this area ready for something big.
nbsp;
 I only have 4 weeks left and that saddens me deeply.
nbsp;
 BUT,  I,  for the first time,  know what it is that I,  specifically,  want to do with my life in ministry.
nbsp;
 That,  in and of itself,  creates an excitement for going back to school and getting the classes and education that I need to come back to Horizon and pour into this body.
 I wish all of my friends and family could come and see what God is doing here.
nbsp;
 I want them to see what He's doing in the lives of twentysomethings who have all but been written off to laziness and the inability to commit.
nbsp;
 There's a fire and a passion in these twentysomethings that I have rarely seen.
nbsp;
 They're not being told that they are the church of tomorrow and they need to wait for that day to come.
nbsp;
 They ARE the church and her leaders NOW.
nbsp;
 Their passion to see their friends,  family,  and co- workers come to know of a relationship with Christ is moving.
nbsp;
 Their desire to do anything to make sure that happens is even more amazing.
nbsp;
 I am blessed to be here.
nbsp;
 I am honored to be used by God here.
nbsp;
 Please pray for Horizon.
nbsp;
 Pray for us deeply.
nbsp;
 Pray for the staff:  Dave Cowan,  Clay Carver,  Josh Smith,  Leslie Webster,  and Mark Stephenson.
nbsp;
 I have been amazed by each of them and honored to be in their presence.
nbsp;
 Pray for our finances,  in the words of Ulysses Everett McGill,  " We're in a tight spot.
nbsp;
 God has provided thus far and we all know He will continue to provide.
nbsp;
 Pray that we will be able to reach our communities in a relavent way.
nbsp;
 Pray that God will continue to raise leaders up within Horizon so that we can continue to multiply ourselves out and grow.
 God has His hand on this movement called Horizon.
nbsp;
 I have been here for 1 1/ 2 months and I have been in awe at the stories I have heard and even been apart of.
nbsp;
 God is doing something here.
nbsp;
 I am blessed,  honored,  and amazed that I have been chosen to be apart of it.
nbsp;
 Thank you,  Jehovah,  for choosing me.
