I Still Do Returns
Our one day arena event called “I Still Do” has returned. There are three events. Our first was
in Chicago on August 2nd. The next one is in Portland, OR on August 23rd. The final one will be in
Washington DC October 4th and it will also be available as a simulcast to churches across the
globe.
We were originally planning on working all three until our move to Texas interfered. Now we
will be working the one in Washington DC in October only. We are looking forward to working one of
the large arena events again. It is a ton of work but truly a blessing to see the Lord impact so many
marriages in the span of a few short hours.
The format includes great Biblical teaching to strengthen your marriage. There are terrific
comedy acts and great worship music. The price also includes a box lunch.
There were pages of positive responses to the first event in Chicago. Here’s just one:
It was a moment of laughter, tears, hugs and reconciliation. I was truly blessed and my husband hasn't
been the same since Saturday!
I was dragged here. I was angry. But my heart softened enough to ask my wife for forgiveness, and I
could renew my vows willingly and heartily, albeit tearfully.
If you are interested in more information you can go to our familylife.com website or directly to
istilldo.com. We look forward to sharing stories of God changing lives from the next two events. If
you want to attend but aren’t close to Portland or Washington DC your church may want to consider
the simulcast from DC event in October.
Along with the October 4th “I Still Do event” we will also be working two “Weekend To Re-
member” events this fall. We will be in Dallas (Los Colinas) at the Omni Mandalay hotel Nov. 14-16.
The following weekend we will be in San Antonio at the Hyatt Hill Country Resort Nov. 21-23.
Though there are fewer events this fall we will continue to be busy with our office responsibili-
ties while working from home. We will also be traveling back to Little Rock a few times. We have an
“All Staff” meeting the end of August and warehouse days in September. For our warehouse days it
is “all hands on deck” as we go through all of our equipment sets to make sure they are all in good
working order and no missing parts.
We look forward to our staff meeting in a few weeks. It is a time to hear how we are doing as
a ministry, where the Lord is directing us next, and a time of spiritual renewal. It will also be a won-
derful time for us to reconnect with friends on staff. We’ve only been gone for a couple of months but
really miss all the great folks we worked with for the past 13 years.
On the way to and from Little Rock we will
go through College Station, TX and spend a
little time with our sons, their wives, and our
grandson. We will also be dropping off
Oscar (our rescued 20 year old African Grey
Parrot). He is our only pet and fortunately he
likes to travel.
