I am really excited this evening. I just got off the phone with someone from my church who works with the small group program. I shared earlier on this blog that I have been wanting to get more involved and have felt called to be a part of a small group. The man from my church invited me to help launch and lead a new small group.
This sounds like just the kind of ministry that I love. I also am grateful for the opportunity to get to know more people in my church. Being the introvert that I am, I have really not branched out much beyond attending worship for the past year. So, connecting to a small group will really be good for me.
I ask for your prayers as I go through the training and orientation. I also ask for your prayers for those who I have yet to meet who will be a part of my small group. I look forward to growing faith with them.
I know God is up to something good in all of this. Thanks for being a part of my journey!

Rio Dvd/Bluray comes out Aug.2 plus a Giveaway ends 8-19
Rio
Releases August 2, 2011
DVD and Bluray
Rated G
1 hr 35 mins
Synopsis:"Rio tells the story of Blu (Jesse Eisenberg), a Spix Macaw who is captured from his native homelands of Brazil at a young age to be domesticated thousand of miles away with his human owner Linda. His new owner soon discovers that he is the last male of his kind, and with that , the two head south to Rio de Janeiro to meet Blu's new mate. However, it is nowhere near close to love at first sight between the socially awkward, flight challenged Blu and the strong and independent extreme flying female Jewel (Anne Hathaway). Shortly after Blu's arrival, greedy animal smugglers capture the two rare birds and they soon find themselves helplessly lost in the Brazilian rainforest. Unexpectedly thrown together they embark on a hysterical and endearing adventure where they learn about friendship, love, courage and spreading ones wings to fly."
The creators of ICE AGE bring to audiences a whole new tropical adventure with Rio. They have such an array of characters in this film. Voice talents of George Lopez, Tracy Morgan, Jemaine Clement, will.i.am, Jamie Foxx, Jane Lynch, & Wanda Sykes.
My Opinion:
I haven't seen the movie yet so I cant wait until Aug.2 to see it. My oldest 3 have seen it at the theaters and loved it. They said it was funny and cute. They want to see it again. Even my son liked it and said it was really funny. So it must be cute. From the preview it looks absolutely adorable. I love the colorful animation and the animals and all. I cant wait to see it! So check it out Aug.2!
We are giving 1 lucky reader a copy of Rio on DVD. Yay!
