Hey All.

Here are some things to be thinking about over the next two weeks.

1. We have a meeting at the Java Jungle this Monday night at 6:30. Please plan to be there. We are going to discuss some future plans for Restoration.

2. On July 29th, at 6pm we are having our second dry-run at CCC. All set-up and worship peoples will need to be at this. We’re going to test our equipment and play some music! Tom and Kyle will be getting details to everyone.

3. I’ve attached some pictures from the Hollywood Theater walk through. Check them out!

Yep…it’s official…Addie’s got me wrapped around her fingers…all 10 of them!

Hey All.

Adelaide Carin Orzo was born at 1:25pm today. She weighs 9lbs 7oz. and is 20 inches long.

Thanks for all of your prayers.

-Anthony, Carin, Aiden, and Adelaide Orzo.

Hey All.

I wanted to ask for your prayers tomorrow.

Carin and I are scheduled to go to the hospital at 10am on Friday the 2nd to have our baby.

As it stands, the doctors will deliver our daughter by c-section.

I’ll post pics and the details as soon as I can.

I’m so excited I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep tonight!

Hey All.

Here are the details for the July 4th social. Make sure you thank Kristina for putting all of this together! In light of the social, we didn’t plan a meeting this Monday at the Java Jungle.

This Sunday is the 4th of July! Port Orange puts on a fun fireworks show and this provides Restoration a great opportunity to get together with the community. We will be meeting at Moe’s in Port Orange at 7:00 P.M. to have dinner. Fireworks kick off at 9:00 P.M., so we can make the short walk from Moe’s to the ampitheater to enjoy the show. If you can’t make dinner, but would like to watch fireworks, meet at Moe’s by 7:45 P.M. Moe’s is in the plaza at the corner of Clyde Morris and Herbert St. It’s just south of the Java Jungle. Hope to see everyone there! Bring your friends and family!

Hey All.

Just a reminder…on Sunday, the 27th @ 4pm there will be a game night at Kyle Altes’ (aka K-Diggity) house. We’ll be ordering pizza so bring a few bucks to chip in.

Directions to Kyle’s house:

173 University Circle

Ormond Beach, FL 32176

Also, Monday June 28th (7pm) at Christ Community Church we’ll be hosting our first Restoration Dry Run Party. At the meeting we’ll be setting up and testing our audio equipment in preparation for launch. We’ll have food so be sure to come and hang out. Many of you have already committed to do transportation and set-up for the dry run. For that I’d like to say thanks!

Hey All.

I had a great vacation, but it’s good to be back. My family and I spent some time on the beach and just took it easy. Thanks for being patient with my blogging absence!

I wanted to use this post to thank all of you who make pastoring Restoration Church such a joy. It means the world to us that we can go away and know that everything will be just fine!

Thanks to all of you who kept the wheels turning while we were away!

On another note…We’re having a baby next week! I expect we’ll be out-of-pocket for a week as we bring our daughter into the world.

I’ll post more details about this as we get them. Please keep us in your prayers.
