Oh, yeah, I forgot to post that I added a new main page for Upstairs Room Media/Web Development. It’s the main landing page for upstairsroom.net and I added it to the menu above.

Elaine and Gabe are off for the summer soon. Elaine will be serving at a camp in North Carolina. The Refuge is a young Christian Camp set in Ayden, NC. Actually only a couple hours from Emerald Isle, NC where we have been asked to provide summer camp programming the first week of July for a local church.

Gabe will be serving once again this summer at Camp Bethel in Wise, VA.

They will both leave out soon after Gabe’s high school graduation at the end of May. So from this summer on, things will NEVER be the same around here.

Anyway, as I stated above, they will be serving at separate camps all summer. In order to allow them to serve in these environments, we have to raise financial support each year. These positions, while not “voluntary” are not necessarily “paid” positions either. Their weekly “pay” comes from whatever financial support has been sent to the respective camp in their individual names.

So, if you feel so inclined, we ask that you prayerfully support them as they need to cover travel expenses, equipment, and lodging (in some cases), etc. Simply contact me through this website to learn how you can support a summer missionary! All donations are tax deductible (where allowed) through 501(c)(3) organizations.

Now, with that said, I am also looking for more web design work for the summer for just this reason. It takes money to spread the gospel… and hopefully YOU need a website design, or redesign! I can help. With VERY fair pricing and lower than most any others.

Here is my latest design. I hope to turn this one over to the client this week. http://fowphoto.com

Thanks and GOD BLESS!!

My most recent site is a Blog setup for Mercy Hill Baptist Church. http://mercyhillblog.com. Mercy Hill is a church plant in Shepherdsville that Elaine and I have become involved with. Realizing the need of this community and the impact this new church could have on our immediate area drew us to become involved. You can visit the Mercy Hill Baptist Church main page here to find out more about the church.

This Blog site is mainly for communication and discussion among those involved in Mercy Hills “Missional Community” groups, but is setup to allow anyone to read the Blog posts. This way we hope others will see what Mercy Hill is about and want to become involved.

The site includes many features I have designed and discovered while creating other sites over the last few years. Some of the details include custom fonts, email or text posting, specific category post pages only, custom user registration, auto-post-to-Facebook and MUCH customizing of CSS and PHP code.

The Camp Bethel and Camp Bethel Childhood Development Center websites have both also been updated/upgraded. Several un-noticeable details have been changed in both.

One major noticeable change at campbethel.com is the online shopping/payment. Now included is a much more manageable and much better looking layout that allows for easier implementation of new products and editing current products. Currently available is online payment for Summer Camp and Special Events and Summer Camp Media (photos/videos). We’ve discussed adding many more Camp Bethel related items like T-shirts, etc. before Summer Camp time rolls around.
