R SQUARED "GIG ALERT"
Week of November 11th, 2012
______________________________________________________________________________________________ 


Week in WRAP

1. Recent News
So many exciting things have been happening in the realm of RSQAURED lately! First, I want to share with everyone a story about the attached picture. In the photo, you will see Bill and his grandson Brandon wearing our green RSQAURED shirt. If any of you have one of our shirts, you will notice a signature on the front at the bottom of the "R." That signature belongs to Brandon, and he is the master mind behind the design of our shirt. This past Friday, Brandon finally received his first shirt, and by the smile on his face I think he liked the design :) 

2. Light the Night for Adrianna
Much has also been happening with Light the Night! God has blessed us in so many ways these past few weeks and I need to share a few of the stories.

First of all, two weeks ago I was in class and received a call from Adrianna's mom. She told me that the East Peoria Courier called her and was looking for my phone number because they wanted to do a story on Light the Night. Still to this day, I do not know how they found out about the event, but I have a feeling the Lord was at work. Please check out the article by clicking HERE

We have also been hard at work trying to find a Santa. I have been asking all of my family, friends, co-workers, classmates, and everyone in search of a Santa! This week, Noah and I became desperate and made a jaunt down to Bass Pro. I knew they had the "North Pole" set up in their store, so I wanted to see if their Santa would be available for us. Turns out, they rent their Santa from Michigan and he sleeps in an RV in the parking lot through all of December. Instead, the manager gave me the name of a guy she remembered from years ago that might be around. That night, Noah and I found his work number online and I called only to leave a voice mail. I never heard back from him again until this Saturday when I received a call from an unknown number. The caller was our Santa! I spent a good 30 minutes on the phone talking with him about the Gospel and how dressing up as Santa has brought him closer to God. While on the phone, I felt like I was truly talking with Santa Claus. I know God was at work in this situation, and cannot wait to see what else He has planned for Light the Night.

Have a blessed week everyone!
