Chillin' in the City

It was a pretty relaxing day off today ... just hanging with some buddies in the city and taking some pictures at Hyde Park. I also stopped by a couple of travel agents to take care of some mission trip stuff. But I realized today I'm more relaxed Friday and Sunday nights than I am on Mondays ... maybe because on Mondays I have our Tuesday staff meetings hanging over me. Regardless, I still love having the day off.

As you can see in the picture, Eddie Bang was also quite relaxed as we chilled in the city =) We both brought our cameras hoping to capture some good shots of Sydney. Picture taking now has new significance thanks to the world of blogging. I've been really impressed with Eddie Bang's photography these days. He's been taking so many amazing shots of the Opera House and of Harbour Bridge, both in the daytime and at night. He has a great eye for good shots ... hopefully he'll have more pictures up on his site.

Hope you all had a good weekend. It was a great one for me; it always feels good to start a new series and I was thankful to hear that it was well received and helpful for our congregation. We had a preliminary meeting for our mission teams and started our Care Groups again as well. I'm looking forward to how the rest of this year will unfold ... it's been a great 2005 so far, esp. with seeing so many lives change and experience personal breakthroughs this year. More of You, Lord ... and all for You Lord.
