Well it was 'officially' announced Sunday morning. I have been offered and have accepted the position of Creative Arts Director at Orchard Valley Community Church in Aurora, IL. My family and I are very excited about the opportunity to be a part of such an awesome church family! God is doing some great things in this place! It is both an honor and a privilege to be working alongside the staff and volunteers at The Orchard.
If you have not had the opportunity yet to check this church out, I encourage you to show up on Sunday morning. Engage in the environment - the great music and life-changing message of Jesus... you will not regret it. And the people... man! Some great stories and just cool people to be around. The excitement there is contagious! I look forward to all that God is going to do in and through the community that meets there.
God is great!
Peace... and see you at The Orchard.

Hey Mike, I love your blog. I get the feeling you like some of the same kind of music I do.
Scott and Amanda have been friends of ours for a long time. We are very excited for you to partner with them. Scott's leadership is contagious, just as you say. I hope the road ahead will be filled with many many blessings for you and your family.
We hope to come and visit again soon and look forward to meeting you.
