Weekend

Nope, still haven't gotten my refund back. We called the next morning at 8:15 when the manager was to be there ("She will be in first thing in the morning") and of course, she was not there, neither was she there at 3 p.m. or 6 p.m. Today I received a message from the corporate office and I gave them more specifics from my gas receipt. I couldn't believe how rude they were.
Actually (Lyn) we were in Virginia visiting some family of family. We were curious to see what was happening in Roanoke, VA. Some family of family had set out to accomplish an awesome goal. 1000 new believers, 100 full-time Christian workers and 10 church plants in 10 years. Their goal at Parkway House of Prayer is "Win, Build, Send." They have started 8 churches in the Phillipines and 4 churches in Virginia in 7 years. I am not sure where they are at on the 100 and the 1000 goals but it is awesome what God has been doing for them. The church below is sort of the "hub" church. They grew to around 500 people. They took approximately 50-75 people and started a new church. That church grew big enough that some of the original 50-75 went back to the original church. Two more churches have started and are still going strong. We visited one of the planted churches and they now have two services as they have outgrown their sanctuary.

well...any word on the refund yet?
Years ago I called a district manager of the McD's where we lived over a 69 cent Hot Wheel promotion that was being poorly conducted by the local manager. Her rudeness is what caused the District Manager to get involved. Kids rec'd free Jeep HotWheel when all was said and done. Like you said, it's the principle of the thing.

Nope, no word yet. Someone called and left a voicemail but when I called them back I got their voicemail.
