Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap is a look back at my sometimes chaotic, sometimes boring and most of the time somewhere in-between weekend.

  • My weekend started out right!… TRAPPERS SUSHI in Covington.
  • BTW, did you know I’m on Twitter? Follow me at twitter.com/scottharris.
  • Saturday we had the privilege of celebrating Michelle’s Grandparents 70th Wedding Anniversary. That’s a whole different post but for now check out my daughter, Cambria’s post here. So inspired by their lives!
  • Wow! Only two weeks until the launch of SEVEN. Dang, we’ve got a lot of work to do.
  • Sunday @ Brooklake was phenomenal. Baptized two, started to promote our Fall groups (more on that later) and so much energy. I love my church!
  • My girls go back to school this week. This summer went too fast. Too fast I tell ya!

Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap is a look back at my sometimes chaotic, sometimes boring and most of the time somewhere in-between weekend.

  • First of all… Congratulations to Jesse & Danielle on the arrival of their baby girl; Vera Jade Anderson, born on August 13th at 7:55pm, 8 lbs 7 oz. It sounded like a roller coaster delivery but baby and mommy are doing fine. It’s reported that Jesse’s hairline has receded like the tide though.
  • Michelle and I met up with great friends (and their husbands tagged along) Friday evening at Belltown Pizza. Great food and catching up!
  • Saturday was crazy… all 4 Harris’ went different directions in the morning. I spent the morning serving alongside my Brooklake peeps at the Tacoma Rescue Mission. What a great organization! Just a side note: David Curry, the CEO, and I went to college together. So cool to see God use him in such a powerful way!
  • Michelle and I spent the rest of the day riding. From Marymoor in Redmond to Seward Park (Seattle) and back…60 miles. Training for the Whidbey Century in late September.
  • Wrapped up my Everyday Faith series at Brooklake with the final message, When We Ask God Why. And our Kids Ministry put on their annual water event, Splash. Great Sunday!
  • And as if all that’s not enough… Jammed up to Lake Goodwin with Ian and his family to chill. Great way to wrap up an amazing weekend with amazing people!

Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap is a look back at all the fun, crazy, mundane and powerful moments in my weekend. What a great weekend. Busy, busy, busy and all good!

  • Friday afternoon Michelle and I had a meeting that just might change our lives. Not another move. Bigger than that!
  • Sorry for the delay but Michelle and I got out of town last night…more on that in a minute.
  • Went to the Mariners game Friday with some great friends and then hung out like we were 19 again. Haven’t got to bed that late in long time!
  • Saturday we picked up Cambria and Marissa after they spent a couple days raising money for Cambria’s China trip. See her post here.
  • Then it was off to our Godkids 4th Birthday. We love you Aiden! Happy Birthday! Shoot the guns first thing in the morning before mommy and daddy have had their coffee!
  • Sunday. Wow. All I can say is that God is doing something at Brooklake and I’m so glad to be apart of it! Preached on having generous hearts. Played this clip (edited it a bit). Had a guy offer his boat for ministry!
  • Sunday afternoon Michelle and I got away to Suncadia Resort. Long overdo! We used to do this once-a-quarter and need to get back to it.

Have a great week folks!

Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap is a look back at all the fun, crazy, mundane and powerful moments in my weekend.

  • First of all, Marissa, was with a friend all weekend in Eastern WA. Glad she had fun but the world just wasn’t right without her. :(
  • What was intended to be a leisurely 20 miles bike ride on the Cedar River Trail Friday evening ended up being a serious competitive event. With about 7 miles to go, Michelle, just had to catch up and keep up with another lady who didn’t look like a rider but was clicking along at about 21 miles/hr…up hill!
  • Saturday we went out the 410 near Mt Rainier and hiked to Sheep Lake. Cambria and her boyfriend Logan joined us.
  • Services on Sunday were incredible. Really felt as if a lot of people connected to the message. So thankful I get the privilege of working along side people that are as called to their respective roles as I am to lead/teach.
  • Finished up the weekend tonight with some great friends and some great grub at the McMurren’s.

Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap is a look back at all the fun, crazy, mundane and powerful moments in my weekend.

  • Friday my cousin, Molly, and her husband, Ryan, brought their 3 kids (and our god kids) over for the night. Tons of fun! Love those kids!
  • U2 canceled their June 20th show because of Bono’s injury. So our band covered 4 U2 songs. When I say it was awesome…trust me that is not ‘evangelistically’ speaking. They rocked the place. And it was worshipful…some seriously poignant lyrics.
  • My message was from James 1:1-12. I had one of those sacred moments today. Call it the anointing. Call it whatever. But God was there to help. I’m so thankful for the sacred trust to communicate on behalf of God.
  • Despite the rain, Brooklake’s Motor Ministry put on our first annual Father’s Day Car & Motorsports Show. Such a cool thing to see all the amazing cars, trucks and bikes. I had the privilege of choosing the Pastor’s Pick. My choice? A black ’67 Mustang Fastback.
  • This afternoon Michelle’s side of the family starting arriving at our place to celebrate Father’s Day. All in all we had 23 uncles, aunts, cousins, 2nd cousins and Michelle’s Grandpa and Grandma whom have been married for 70 years. Great food, fun and conversations!
  • Happy Father’s Day dads!
  • And a special thanks to my wife and daughters for making today so very special to me. Your words, cards, gifts, tweets, hugs and smiles blessed me so much! I love you!
