Pray for Paige's Family


At about 3 years old after fighting Leukemia, Paige went home to be with Jesus on November 10, 2007, at 9:31pm. I went to Bible School with her Uncle. Pray for comfort, faith, grace, and all thats needed for family and friends to cope in this situation. To read more about her, go to http://paigevictoriabeth.blogspot.com/

What in Tarnation has Adam been doing, come on!!!

Well, as you probably know I went to Peru for 2 months (June 8-Aug. 5). After Peru I hung out with my brother and his family (wife and two sons...3yrs and the other is months old)...I was able to help my brother at the gym he owns...I also watched the boys...had a good time!!!

I then headed home to VA. Here I helped at a Youth Retreat during Labor Day weekend. I had a great time! Taught some of the dramas from my mission trips and shared them with the campers. Everyone loved the "Heart Skit" for those of you who know it ;-) I had loads of fun driving a four-wheeler all over the farm too...

Lets see, well acouple of weeks back I took quite a trip. It started with driving my older sister to NYC where she is on staff at a YWAM DTS. The trip there went well. Then from NYC I went to my grandparents on my dad's side in Lisbon Falls, Maine. I was able to share about my trip to Peru with their church (which actually used to be my church, I used to live in Maine from 1985-1996). I also visited an aunt and uncle and got my hair cut by another aunt.

I then headed to my other brother's place in Gloucester, Mass. for the weekend. Hung out with him, his wife, and three year old little girl. We went to the beach...ate out...drove around...good times. Then on to Dublin, NH, where I went to Bible School for 2 years. Here they were having a Christian Convention which I was able to attend for about three days. I also shared my trip to Peru here. After this I drove down to Pittsburgh, PA to an Internet Business Convention which was AWESOME!! Then on home to good ol Virginny.

I am now working with dad in electrical (we'll actually be doing some carpentry soon, we know someone who needs new stairs outside). Every Thursday I go with my parents to what is called an Industry Briefing for our Internet Business. Last Sunday I had a fun time sharing with my church here in VA my trip to Peru...I'm not sure what my next step is...I'm gonna go to a college for the weekend in Nov. at Liberty University. While there I'll audition for keyboard and voice for their Praise and Worship outreach band...if I become Keyboardist I'll get a free-ride there (if I understand correctly)...as many of you know, I LOVE TO ACT!!! Maybe I should do an acting school with YWAM?? I am in our church drama again this year. I am Fred in "A Christmas Carol in NYC". Much of the music in this drama was written by the youth pastor and her husband!! If you want t come, you are more than welcome, I know you'll enjoy it, and you wont be disappointed. The shows will be on Dec. 14, 15, and 16 at Johnson-Williams Middleschool in Berryville, Virginia. If you are interested in comming, let me know and I will give you more info!!

Well, I will ttyl

To the ends of the earth,
This world for King Jesus,
Adam Parker <>< (Jer. 29:11)

Finally, another post ;-)

So, in my last post I said that I would be putting up more stuff about the Bible...but I just want to tell ya'll some things about God that will encourage you!!

First of all, many parents will tell their kids that they will love them no matter what they do...well, God loves us so much more than parents, nothing we do will seperate us from that love, even when we mess up!
Rom 8:38, 39 For I am persuaded,that neither death,nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love (agape love, unconditional love) of God, which is in Chris Jesus our Lord.

Here is something I wrote in my Bible;

God speaking:
"Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you (Jer. 1:5); I knit you together in your mothers womb (Ps. 139:13); I love you so much more than anyone on earth will ever love you (1 Jn 4:8); don't be afraid of the future, for I know the thoughts that I think toward you, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope, I AM IN CONTROL (Jer. 29:11, Ps. 29:10); you'll hear my voice behind you saying, 'this is the way, walk in it' (Is. 30:21); I am always with you, to the end (Matt. 28:20); I love you more than you'll ever know (Rom. 11:33); I forgive you more than any (Matt. 9:6a,Matt. 18:21 and 22,Ps. 103:12).'"
