Sorry I'm So Late Making Another Entry 10-25-08 01:07am EST

Hello everyone!

To follow up on the hurricanes I am happy that everyone came out safe and sound. Thanks to everyone who responded, we were really concerned.

I'm sure everyone is wondering how Shawn and I are doing. We are doing great. We are both pleased with the work here and it seems that we are drawing closer and closer to the members here. Nevertheless, there will ALWAYS be a special place in my heart for Dowlen Road. I always think about all of you and the valuable lessons that I learned. I also think about Lee and Heidi and all the wonderful lessons I learned from them on how to be an effective preacher's wife. I have really stepped out my comfort zone and I love it . I've been holding bible studies and getting to know all of the ladies of the church.

Shawn is doing brilliant. The other day I just sat back and looked at where we've come from. I remember when he wanted to preach, but did not know how to do it the most effective way. Thats when Max and David came along and entered our lives. Everyone made some kind of impact on us at Dowlen. The elders, deacons, and members. We are always thankful for this!

I miss all of my little sisters...Bree, Amanda, Adrien, Mandi, Bethi, Mya, Bailey, The Scott Girls, Emily,...Oh the list could go on and on!!!! I miss my little brothers too...Julian, Jeremy, Jeremiah, Jonathan, Todd, Reuben, Trey, ....the list goes on and on here too! Please forgive me if I left names out (my hand would fall off if I wrote everyone's name). All of you drop me a note and let me know how its going. Take care and always put God number one thats the only way to go. Remember to only care about what God thinks and not what your peers may think. In the end what God thinks really matters and his judgement determines where you will spend eternity!

Stay faithful and keep in touch!!!!

Love,

Shawn and GG

jenkegley

Hey GG! It sure did my heart good to get to hug y'all's neck the other night! As soon as we left after services that night, I got on my cell phone and called Mom and Dad and said, "Guess who we saw?!" - And Michaela wanted to tell be the one to tell Mom who she got to see. We finally got home Tuesday afternoon. We are very blessed. We lost some trees and that's about it - and by the time we got home, the power was back on. LOVE YOU!!

SHAWN IS EATING ONE CHEESEBURGER A WEEK!!!! 08-01-08 09:28pm EST

Hello Everyone!

I know that I have shocked the world with this one! Since Shawn has been on his own preaching, we have been to the hospital a bunch visiting the sick. Well, everyone that we visit seems to have a sickness based on eating choices that they made early in their life. Sooooo, Shawn and I had a serious talk. We went to the doctor and got a full check up to see where our health was at. Yesterday we got a call back that both of us are in great health (no high blood pressure, diabetes, heart trouble) etc. Shawn has decided that if things are going to stay this way we have to eat only one burger a week (on the George Foreman Grill)!

I am so proud of him. He says he wants to live to preach a long time like Max :). We also go running like David :). Hmmmm see any other influences in this decision (smile). Max and David if you read this just know you trained him in more ways than one! O.k. I know your eyeballs are about to fall out, but I need to share a couple of more things.

Shawn baptized his first person here in Leesburg tonight. We have several studies going on with the lost and one responded to the gospel tonight. Wow! I am sooooooooooooo happy. This lady is middle aged and when she saw the truth about salvation she did not budge. She said she wanted to baptized tonight. So Shawn and I brought her to the building and she was baptized about 9:30pm. Lesson to learn.....NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE GOSPEL! It really has encouraged me to get out and tell more people about the truth because some people still have honest hearts!

O.k. last thing! I got a job!!! I spent my entire summer trying to find a teaching job and the Lord has blessed me. I will be teaching Pre-Kindergarten in Ocala, FL (about a 30 min. drive from Leesburg). I will have 18 students with an assistant in the room at all times! We both feel blessed physically and most of all spiritually. We think of Dowlen Rd. all the time. I wish we could call you all regularly, but its kinda hard to call 400 members regularly! We love you all!!!!!!!

jenkegley

Aww. . . sounds like things are going wonderfully! So happy for ya'll. Oh, by the way, you did not spell Michaela's name wrong. You are one of the few people who has spelled it right the first time! :)

 
longhorngirl1

haahahah thats crazy and t5hats good that he baptized a person!!

 
danielle131

hahahahaha... cheeseburgers :)I'm gonna cry,and it's good shawn baptized a person.Tell him a said hi.Love yall!

 
tulagirl

Tell Shawn how proud I am of him!! Oh if only that one burger could be Harold's! How is the veggiephobia going? Does this mean he will eat his veggies now? I promise to call soon, there is more to tell! Miss you guts oh sorry I mean miss you guys!!!! Love you !!!

 
jabberwock

Glad y'all are doing well. I agree that all the "preacher visits" really lead one to consider mortality. Tell Shawn that the next time I see him, I expect him to become a convert to tofu. . .

 
wifelet

Wow!! Only one burger?!? That's amazing! :) And praise God for the lost sheep returned! :) Sounds like everything's going really well for y'all down there - if we make it to the lectures in Tampa this coming year, we'll have to swing through and see y'all! :)

 
entheos

(tracy) I'm so happy that things are going well for you two! Good luck with your new found healthiness :) Give our love to the brethren there! We rejoice with you!

 
bethie11

i am sooo happy for ya'll but miss ya'll sooo much!! it is so good to hear from you!! hope everything will continue to work out wonderfully and ya'll will continue to be in our prayers every day!! love ya'll and hope to hear from you again soon!! :D O! and when you can can you please check out my page! thnx! LOVE YA SISTER!!

We love it in Leesburg! 07-18-08 11:06am EST

Hello everyone!

Just wanted to let you know that we are doing fine here in Leesburg, Florida. It is so weird not seeing our Dowlen Road family 3 times a week, but everyone will always have a special place in our heart.

Shawn is doing excellent! I guess I'm sort of biased because I'm his wife, but its true. He is taking everything seriously and he loves preaching every Sunday. I am doing well. I go with him to visit people in the hospital and just to visit members and get to know them better. I love it! I am very happy and I truly give God all the honor and praise.

Everyone please keep in touch and reserve a special place in your hearts for us. We love you all!

jenkegley

Good to hear from you! I'm glad ya'll are doing well. Mom is here for a couple of days and she says "hi." Tell Shawn we said hi, too! Love you too!

sebrinamatthews

hEY GG HOW ARE YOU? I REALLY MISS YOU BOTH. MARLI COURTNEY AND GRACY ARE REALLY GROWING UP I WISH YOU'LL COULD HAVE STAYED A WHILE BUT I KNOW YOU HAD TO MOVE ON TO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS. GG, KASANDRA AND I LOST MY GRANDMOTHER ON JULY 14TH, AND BE BURIED HER ON SATURDAY THE 19TH. I'M REALLY GOING TO MISS HER, BUT SHE WAS A CHRISTIAN WOMAN FOR ALL OF MY LIFE. MY GRANDFATHER WAS A GOSPEL PREACHER. SO, IT KIND OF MAKE THE GRIEVING PROCESS A LITTLE EASIER TO BEAR. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING FINE. I STARTED BACK WORKING OUT. I HAD STOPPED FOR A WHILE WHEN EVERYTHING WAS GOING ON, BUT I SAW THE RESULTS OF MY HARD WORK, SO I HAD TO START UP AGAIN. I FEEL BETTER WHEN I DO ANYWAY. I'M SO GLAD AMANDA HELPED ME WITH THE PLEONAST, THAT WAY I GET TO TALK TO YOU GG AND YOU TOO SHAWN. WELL AGAIN I REALLY MISS YOUR SMILING FACES A BUNCH. GG WHO IS DOING YOUR HAIR OR ARE YOU DOING IT YOURSELF? IS IT STILL LONG AND BEAUTIFUL? I CUT MINE ABOUT 2WEEKS AGO. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. IT'S SO EASY TO KEEP UP. I WILL TALK TO YOU VERY SOON.

 
jabberwock

Hey, y'all! I just picked the name jabberwock because I love Lewis Carroll. I've had it since I got married, so it's been awhile. Glad to hear that you are doing well. Maybe we'll get to see y'all next Febuary. Btw, Lauren is wifelet on here.

 
tulagirl
