Hi Friends!
We have Life Lines this Sunday night! We'll resume meeting at Ginger and Tony's house. (As far as I know!) It's been a crazy, busy couple of weeks around the Radford household and at work, so forgive me for not emailing and blogging! Dexter and I are headed to the beach for Thursday night and Friday night-I am looking forward to a little relaxing family time!
Since our last meeting, there's some news about our LifeLines summer schedule. We will observe an altered schedule this summer to allow everyone a time of relaxation-a little down time in all of our packed and hectic schedules. Our last regularly schedule meeting will be this Sunday, May 18. It is the hope of the church staff and the LifeLine leaders that this altered schedule will allow everyone more opportunities to enjoy family time and other summer activities. We will be planning some "events" (which include our kids) so that we won't lose touch over the summer, so please don't worry that our group is going away or anything like that.

Since we won't be seeing each other on a routine basis this summer, I have some ideas about how we can get together. I've asked my parents about hosting a bbq/pool party in their backyard. I need to firm the date up with my mom, but I am thinking that we can do this during the first of June.

In July, I think it would be fun to have a homemade ice cream party at someone's house. Anyone interested in hosting us?

We'll start meeting again at the end of August, but maybe we can fit one more fun little thing in at the beginning. Any suggestions?

On Sunday night, I think we will just chat and fellowship,and perhaps play the question game again for those who missed it the first time. (Send me your questions!) As for food, let's just do potluck and everyone bring some kind of food stuff. What do you think about that?

I'm excited about having some extra time this summer, but I am going to miss seeing you all on a regular basis outside of just seeing you at church. We have to make a commitment to each other to not get lost in the shuffle during our break. Let's make a concerted effort to see each other, talk to each other, love each other and fellowship, okay?

We love you guys! Let me know your thoughts on this!
