Back to work

Sorry there was no post yesterday. We had 2 busy days with our veterinary practice here in central California. Modesto and Dos Palos on Monday, then we went to Live Oak Monday night and worked there today. We got back to Turlock late afternoon today and I just got back from a Teen Challenge board meeting at Faith Home. No bike riding.

The Director of San Joaquin Valley Teen Challenge is Dennis Whitman. We are so fortunate to have a man leading this ministry who has been where every man who comes to Teen Challenge has been and then has developed a leadership style over the last 25+ years that helps and trains men to find victory over the struggles of life. Dennis did time in San Quentin Prison in the 1970's. There is a mug shot picture of him in a book that is scary to say the least. How can a man so mean become so gentle and humble? Take a trip to Teen Challenge at Faith Home. You are likely to find Dennis in the 25 acre almond orchard on one of his prayer walks.
