Mostly West Coast :)




Good Morning!

  I didn't take that many West Coast Pictures I was a little preoccupied ;) 


  The week before West Coast we had a fellowship meeting in Santa Paula. The service was awesome, Bro. Tim Brown Preached. It was good seeing everyone's favorite guy, Victor Storm. He did a great job leading service and even sang a special. 









The following day was our highly anticipated, Round Up Sunday! A big evangelism push for our Sunday School Kids, Many of whom brought their parents to church. We all dressed up as cowboys, even yours truly, lol. I'm a city boy so I really didn't know what I was doing. haha

DUNK TANK!!


The Calm Before the Storm

There were small skits and plenty of laughs

Skit members 

Matty James playing the bad guy roll

One of my first customers at the Dart Booth. You have to be prayed up to take this job. lol 

Pastor was dunked shorty after this. 




West Coast

-The following week I drove up with Josh and his dad. Matt was with us also, the drive up there wasn't too bad. Lot's of wind but we avoided the grapevine taking a different route. Let me just let you know that I had a really bad cold during the entire time of WC. Don't know how I made it, Lack of sleep only made it worse. I was pretty much living off of DayQuil. lol We didn't stay at usual Raddison/Fresno Inn/Double Tree/Triple Stack Baconater. lol No complaints tho, the place had two rooms and a living room haha 

Quick Story: My buddy Jacob stayed with us and well we only had four card keys, he had to basically depend on us to get in the room. On the last night as customarily, we all go to Denny's. Load up on water with Lemon and have a good time. lol Well him and I went to different Denny's and we were different groups, his contained someone special to him. So I naturally understood. 

Well...he got back much later than we did. Well we were all  so tired that we knocked out. My phone was charging out of reach and I fell asleep! My phone was on silent so I never heard his calls. He knocked and knocked on the door and no one heard him. This was 4am, he ended up sleeping in his truck for a couple hours. Then came back and knocked at 6. One of us finally heard and let him in. He basically broke the record for latest hour return to a hotel in conference history. 

"Welcome to our Humble Commode. "lol 

Stumbled into a small store trying to get quarters for a self car wash. Found the Mexican Candy Heaven!

We know who marked up Jacob's Tuck, He didn't really mind tho *cough cough*

I was too lazy to zoom in. lol 

Yuraih and Arthel teasing me about me currently dating. We were so tired, including Marvin. The guy who took the picture. lol I think we talked about just every topic we could think of. I ordered a hot tea, first time ever. lol 


One of the best pics ever. Keep in mind, all Burbank and soon to be Burbank. lol ;) But in this group are new converts and they look like seasoned vets. Thank God, he is really doing great things in our church. We had more new people that went, they just didn't make it in this pic. :)

As mentioned earlier, I was preoccupied. :)




Anyways, not the most pics, half of which weren't even West Coast related. lol It is what it is. lol The services were amazing Bro. Lackey's preaching the last night, stuck with me the most. For those of us who don't attend T.T. we didn't know some of his background and how God lead him to take over the Elder Morton's Church. He let everyone know how grateful he was for a praying daddy and how it impacted his life!  

Hope you have a great day and God Bless
