In God I Am...
I have been intrigued this past year with proclamations that we can make as Christians and I really enjoyed reading down this list I stumbled across at the page below:Accepted, Significant, and Secure.
It is worth the 3 minute read for the truth, hope, and encouragement that it reminds us we have in Christ.

Videos of New Zealand and Surfing
Some New Videos for you!
My friend Evy Mazellan from Marion, IN is over here in Auckland staying with the Fussners and his main two goals are to surf and paint. I can't help him with the painting, but i can with the surfing!
Evy graduated from Marion high school a term early and is living in NZ until June instead of in being in school. It is fun to see New Zealand and to get a feel for some of the roads, landscape, and ocean through younger fresh eyes, so i am sure you will enjoy the 2 videos he has made.
This first video is of Evy and me surfing at Hot Water Beach.
This is the first time i have ever seen myself surf on video!
This second one is Evy's fun video he made for friends.

Barefoot at Church
I played barefoot on the worship team this week and then looked around and realized that two others were too! I am still so used to the whole "no shoes, no shirt, no service" that it is still hard for me to get over that people can go into most restaurants, grocery stores, etc barefoot. I still feel like i am breaking some law when i do it or like my feet are missing something?
"You're the Pastor who was Barefoot!"
I even remember taking off my sandals to feel comfortable and preaching barefoot at a school assembly once while i was in college and I didn't think anything of it at the time.
A year later i met a student who was trying to remember how they knew me and they finally remembered, "Oh, you were that pastor who was barefoot!" Apparently i stood out more than i thought.

Summer Media Fast
Not necessarily on purpose, but since camp at the beginning of January i have really cut back on my media. I really enjoyed the quality time with people instead of looking at a screen.
That and it being the main part of summer, i found myself heavily involved with people and spending little time at home and in front of a screen.
That has meant few TV time and Movies
Little email and facebook time
and few phone calls
I apologize for the lack of updates and communication to some after camp, but know it is not because i don't love you, it has just been that time of year! :)

Great Superbowl!
I watched the Superbowl at Noon yesterday which was weird because it it usually at like 3pm in San Diego or 6pm in Indiana and would play into the night. And it was mainly three of us guys watching... no huge party... although we did eat well.
Also, they don't show the US commercials, so i am going to have to watch them online later.
I was actually pretty disappointed since i was rooting for the Cardinals, but it was still a fun game to watch nonetheless!
I have loved the last three Superbowls for that.
This Superbowl 09 came down to the last drive and last thirty seconds
Last Year Eli Manning somehow avoided a sack and made a miraculous throw and catch on the last drive of the game in Superbowl 2008 to help win
Even the Colts vs. Bears Game in Superbowl 2007 was an emotional rollercoaster from the start when the opening kickoff was returned for a touchdown!
All this to say i have been more than pleased with the last few Superbowls.
I usually have a favorite team, but i usually root for a close or interesting game more than my team annihilating the other team.
I just remember rooting for the Buffalo Bills against the Cowboys in 1995, and not only did my team lose, but the game wasn't even close. The final was 52-17. At half time i stopped watching, of course i was only like 9 at the time, but still, a close game is always more fun in my eyes.

• Last year of school.
• Pray for my cousin who committed his life to the Lord this week. Just pray that his faith will grow and that he will be strong to his commitments.
• I would like to ask for you to pray for some guidance in my spiritual journey with God and to ask for forgiveness of all the wrongs I’ve done in my past.
• Even though my dad attends church (sometimes) he does not believe in God, I pray for my dad’s belief towards God.
• For my parents to be happy and for my father to go to church.
• For my father to go to church and believe in God.
• I want to be a teacher.
• Please pray that I can have confidence with facing difficult team mates this year in the first 11 and that I could even spread the word more at school and in my team. And also that I can have the strength to put up with non-conscious put-downs others are making about my true faith.
• To have a stronger walk with God and know who he really is.
• My love life.
• School and my future.
• Just pray about my family please.
