A Word On the Absence of the Main Article

Friends.  As you might have now observed there is no full length main article here as is typically the case.  Here is how that unfolded.  On Monday I decided to write some of my thoughts on the current boarder crises.  Because that issue is fraught among our larger culture, I sent my writing to the leadership team to give them a chance to give me feedback.  As the week progressed I decided that instead I wanted to address the topic in my sermon on Sunday.  Verbal communication presents an opportunity that written word does not, and I think I'd like to take advantage of that.  

So thank you for being gracious and I hope to see you seen.  

best, josh

Volunteers Needed @ Brook Avenue

Our friend Wade is working at Brook Ave. this summer and needs some help.  He sent me the following email: 

Hey Josh and Toph,

I know summer is usually pretty cleared out of the people who volunteer for UBC, but I wanted to check if there might some people around who could volunteer for Brook Avenue's new summer program. We need volunteers during the lunch hour, and to help me build a couple basketball goals/tables. Anybody around who you think might be able to help? Thanks!
