Last week for our small group we went to hear Nick Vujicic speak at a large church in Buffalo. Nick is from Australia, he's 26 years old, and he was born with no arms or legs. He is a Christian, and he has decided to dedicate his life to going around the world and speaking to people about Jesus. It was a really amazing and uplifting night. Nick has a great personality - he's really funny making all kinds of jokes about his situation - and he is able to present the gospel in a real and touching way. Seeing how he gets around and how much he has been able to do with his life makes you want to never complain about much anymore! If anyone is interested, you can read about him and his ministry at www.lifewithoutlimbs.org. Here is a pic from the night.
So of course this past weekend was Valentine's Day, but we usually don't really do anything for it. We think it's pretty much silly to spend a lot of money on flowers, cards, or gifts just because the holiday says so. Plus I'd much rather get flowers or a card on any random day! Anyway, Wes played another show at Merge Restaurant on Valentine's night, so some of our friends came out to see him and we all had dinner there before he played. It was a nice way to spend our non-Valentine's Day. This is Adrienne and Patrick:
