I'm a bit stressed out right now trying to make plans for this summer.
searching for plane tickets.
counting vacation days
trying to figure out how to see everyone.
trying to nail down "speaking days" and "work days" compared with vacation days.
feeling like i REALLY need to get that ticket purchased...
anyway, here's the deal. i'll be in the US this summer. Word Made Flesh has a staff gathering every 3 years...and its this summer. i'm super excited about getting so much time (10 days!!!!) with Fleshies from all 'round the world.
i'll also be taking some vacation time (yeah Grand Haven. what's that...backpacking?!?! pontoon boat with the fam? i'll take them all, thank you very much!). and i'm arranging some speaking stuff.
I'll be in the US the first 2 weeks of August (planning to stay in MI) - but if you'd like to arrange for me to speak at a church, with a small group etc - now would be a great time to let me know...and then we can see what we can work out.

That sounds like a great summer Mel!
When you're in Grand Haven (nice little town BTW) I recommend Butch's Beach Burritos. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

If you'd like to speak at a WW group thing, I could coordinate something with Becky possibly.
Peace on your week,
Matt
