New Layout for Chapel Hill Website

Today I changed the layout for the Chapel Hill website, here is a link Chapel Hill Church Wichita I added the green area streching to the sides and the silver bar for the links, along with putting the links along the top, rather than the left side.

I am trying to increase our google page rank for people searching for "church wichita" so if you would like to add a link to Chapel Hill with the text "Chapel Hill Church Wichita" that would be appreciated.

Three Weeks with Kati and an empty house

Kati has been with us in person for 3 1/2 almost 4 weeks now. What a blessing! Kristen took Kati to a baby shower for Quin from church today. Quin is expecting in either July or August (I am a guy, I'm not good with dates OK :-) never have been) The house feels empty without either of them here, especially with both dogs outside.

Kristen asked me to go get dinner while she was gone, she was feeling like a burger so I think I will grill out. Maybe I'll pick up some steaks as well if they are affordable.

Baby Girl

Our little girl, Kati Elizabeth Rowley was born last Tuesday, May 13th, 2008 at 6:16PM
She weighed 8lbs 3oz and was 20 inches long.

We wanted a home birth but ended up transferring to Wesley near the end because Kristen wasn't pushing hard enough to get that little girl out. (I think she may be stubborn like her parents.) So they put Kristen on some pitocin and about an hour and a half later we had Kati.

We came home Tuesday night around 11pm.

Waiting on Baby

We are still waiting on Baby to arrive. We are going to induce Kristen with casteroil again tomorrow and our midwife says our little girl should arrive sometime on Monday.

Our Senior Pastor is blogging

Jeff Gannon has started blogging. This is cool as I think most if not all pastors in American Churches should blog to better reach and communicate with people in this electronic society.

Job interview

I had a job interview this morning and it looks like they are going to hire me. This is a part time job to go along with my work at Chapel Hill. A big thank you to everyone who prayed for me or suggested job leads.

Video from one of my new favorite Bloggers

It is official, I am blogging about blogging, or at least about other people who blog. Still, check out this video from Tony Jones book "A New Kind of Christian" and here are links to the first two videos in this series.
