One of the major projects that I’m working on right now is creating a measurement tool for our campus ministry. It will be a web-based application that will allow our staff to measure their activities and use the information to better lead their efforts.
We are working on the project for Eastern Europe & Russia, but we learned along the way that there was another effort to do the same for Campus Crusade globally. Since we were working on a similar project, we were invited to participate in the global effort. The first face to face meeting of this team is going to be in February in Singapore. I am going to represent our area at the meeting.
I then heard that my good friend, Trey Lewis, who is the director of my old department in Orlando was going to attend. I sent him an email telling him that I was looking forward to seeing him and that he should bring my dad along (For those of you that don’t know, my dad is a project manager for Campus Crusade in that same department).
Before I knew it, I got an email from my dad saying that Trey couldn’t go to the meeting and that my dad was going to go. I didn’t believe it until I heard it from my dad’s mouth, but it looks like it is going to happen. Now I’m really looking forward to it! I would have never guess that dad & I would have to go halfway around the world to see each other. It will be good to work together again. I told him that he should bring my mom along, but she wasn’t too keen on taking a 30 hour flight to spend 3 days on her own while we are in meetings (I can understand that. 30 hours sounds brutal). My flight is similar to flying to the US from here and takes 8 or 9 hours after a short hop to somewhere in Western Europe.
Look foward to seeing you Dad!!!
