Much Excitement!

In honor of Carlos' return from World Youth Day

Cheers:
  Yesterday and today we had Cuban Coffee in honor of Carlos returning safely from World Youth Day. He was gone for 5 weeks with the Home of the Mother on a pilgrimage prior to the World Youth Day events. The office has been quieter since he was gone, but boy did that change yesterday. His arrival back up to the office brought much excitement! The Lumen family is now complete! 

Hurricane Irene:
Irene Cat 2 Hurricane

On Monday, August 22nd, Jacksonville woke up to the news that Irene would hit us early Saturday Morning. Now, thanks be to God we were only affected by Irene's outer bands. This morning we were greeted with random down pours and a sky that made us feel like we were in a movie. The surfers were enjoying what Irene had to offer them. Our prayers today were offered up for everyone on on the East Coast who will be drastically effected by Irene. These pictures were taken by Nicol on her drive into work. 
Update:
1. Our Avid computer(the one that decided to take last Friday off) is barley hanging on. We have a new computer on it's way. 

Prayers:
1. Please pray for the Schwartz family. Ron Schwartz was a friend of Lumen and he joined our Lord on August 25th. Ron battled cancer for the last 6 years and he did so courageously. Ron leaves behind his wife and 3 wonderful children. 
2. Please continue to pray for us and for The Magnificat Cafe as we discern what is God's will for us and where He would like for us to be in regards to our office space.
3. Our computer will hold on and not permanently take a vacation until our new one arrives.
4. Skiff and AJ- we will have no more distractions and the financial and spiritual support will continue to come in. 


Thank you for taking the time to follow us and you all are in our prayers everyday. Have a wonderful blessed and safe weekend! ~Lumen Crew

Manic Monday?

It may just be a manic Monday here at the office...

  Well actually it's not too manic around here. One of our computers is down and Jacksonville will feel the effects of Hurricane Irene. 

Our Computer:
 One of our computers(our AVID computer) decided it wanted Friday off and stopped working. We thought it was completely broken, but we received word this morning that it is salvageable. Praise God!

Hurricane Irene:
     As Jacksonville was waking up this morning and turned on their TV's, we were greeted with the news of Hurricane Irene possibly hitting Jacksonville early Saturday morning. As of 11 this morning the new modules are showing her hooking to the right! Great news for us!

Prayers for the week:
   1. Our AVID computer will be up and running soon.
   2. Brothers and Sisters that have and will be hit by Hurricane Irene
   3. The safe return of everyone from World Youth Day.
   4. For Benoit and The Maginficat Cafe. God's will to be done with the moving situation.
   4. We will have clarity in regards to where the Lord wants Lumen Entertainment to move to. 

We pray you have a wonderful, safe, and Grace-filled week. If you missed Friday's blog, Coincidence or God-incidence?, check it out.  See you on Friday for some Cuban Coffee!
