I really want to lift up Pastor Dating. I have a good report. So I didn't have a good report

until somebody came to me a little while ago, and not that it was a bad report, but somebody

bumped into Kelly and they said they're doing really good. They're really happy for this time

off. They're really getting close together. So please keep your prayers coming for them. Most of you know that this building project from the day we

walked in and Joel and I were the first ones to walk in here. And if you would have actually

seen it, you would have gone, okay, Joel and Ray are absolutely crazy. And then

Pastor J.D. is even more crazy for saying, yeah, this is the right place to go. It was about two

years ago. So for two years, Pastor J.D., has his heart, soul, mind, and body has been poured

into this God's house. And I believe his family suffered a little bit from it so now just getting back together

and spending some quality time so I'm thankful that he is such a man of God that recognized it

and he's taking the time that he needs so thank you guys for your patience and putting up with the

rest of us doing this.

So thank you very much for that.

Thursday, December 1st, our guest speaker will be Pastor Russell and he spoke last

about a week and a half ago. And Pastor Russell is awesome. I mean, do any of you know Pastor Russell, you know, really outgoing, completely out of control guy?

Oh, you do know him. Good. Yeah, very calm. I'd love to be, you know, have Pastor Bender, Pastor, he's just, Ray, it's okay.

And I mean, you messed up because I'm worried about Pastor Bob Prosser,

who are going to have to speak today, because I asked him when he was a police officer,

and he said, from 75, 1975 to 2006, and I said, oh no, did you ever work Waikiki?

And he said, all the time. And I I said, oh man, those were my days.

Before I was a Christian, I mean I never got arrested but I got kicked out of Waikiki

Kee multiple times. It was probably you that did it.
