Susan McCullough who is a manager at CDOT took me out for breakfast this morning to "Wildfire" for a French toast, eggs and bacon extravaganza!
We discussed the current highway construction projects in and around Idaho Springs and Clear Creek County. We also talked about what's happening at United Church where she sits on the Church Council and Clear Creek Neighborhood Church which she attends as well.
We discussed the Tin Shed Food Pantry's desire to cook evening meals every other Monday for the poor in Idaho Springs using the Fellowship Hall attached to the United Church.
I invited Bonnie and Brian from the Tin Shed to come and visit the kitchen facilities next Thursday night. Susan wants them to address the Church Council at their next meeting the Sunday after Easter Sunday. Susan wants me there as well to answer any questions.
The food at the "Wildfire" was subperb and wait staff excellent. The restaurant is owned and managed by Idaho Springs Mayor Hillman.
Planning on attending Good Friday Services at First Baptist Church tonight. Then Easter Services at First Baptist as well.
Next Wednesday I will be leading the Wednesday Night Prayer Service at First Baptist right after supper at the Blackwells.
Met with Pastor Craig from Calvary Evergreen Church yesterday at the Frothy Cup and discussed my potential involvement with the homeless and poor in Idaho Springs vis a vis the Church. Of course, that would necessitate staying on here in Idaho Springs. And, the Clear Creek County Courant newspaper asked me to submit writing samples regarding the position of political reporter, a paid staff position. Yikes!
So, a lot is going on right now with the outside possibility of staying on for an undetermined amount of time here in Idaho Springs.
Looking forward to Easter weekend while worshipping at First Baptist and and studying what the Gospels say of Holy Week and everything that that encompasses.
I will be posting an Easter blog article this weekend. But, bye for now. Peace and grace to y'all my friends!
