Jackson, MS

Okay, so this traveling is getting insane. Roger Parrott at Belhaven College threw together a meeting in Mississippi - and all parties found a way to get together at the last minute. I literally came back from the Smokies in time to pack another bag and board a plane.

First time to M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I (all I can hear in my head is the way I used to spell it really loud and really fast as a little kid!). I didn't get to see much - but the environment was green with lots of trees waiting for spring. Jackson is a small little capital, for sure. There is much diversity, and it certainly looks like what I picture "the South" to be like. I got stuck eating KFC for lunch and it was horrible. The weather was great and I love the GREEN!

Not sure I can talk too much about the meeting - it was mostly a brainstorming session and it was helpful for me as I am to discern the right direction for partnership in regards to Belhaven. Big decisions are very hard. I often pray that God help me with such decisions. The responsibility becomes too much to bear without His guidance.
