You are one of those people for whom the song "Circle of Friends" is so true. You hold a special place in my heart (and I know lots of others from back in the days of Briarlake, Shamrock, etc.) even though we have lost touch and been miles apart for all of these years!<br>I look forward to see what great things God has in store for you in Buckhead. I just wish I didn't live so far out; I swear I feel like we live in South Carolina - we are so far outside of ATL! Anyway, hope to see you soon!<br>Godspeed!<br>Molly</p>Molly MooreTue, 21 Aug 2007 13:29:30 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512135<p>I figured I'd be #125. Excited to have you in the North Point World, dude. Glad to have you on board, and I can't wait to meet you!</p>Jake MillerFri, 10 Aug 2007 09:03:06 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512134<p>Welcome to the East Coast.

I haven't met you yet, but I work with Tyler at the BBCC. I hear amazing things about you and your family from him and Elliott. Can't wait to meet you soon when you join our team.</p>Shae SweeneyTue, 07 Aug 2007 21:21:27 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512130<p>Welcome back to Jawja dude. It'll be great to have you closer. I see some great times with E &amp; I visiting you. Oh, can I come record your worship services? I can do 26 tracks simultaneously right now. I'll buy more channels if you need 'em. Come on, purty please!</p>Jabulani JonnyTue, 07 Aug 2007 19:56:30 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512129<p>Wow! Congrats to you all. I will definitely be praying for your transition, especially for you, Heather, since you've never lived there before. I know there are a lot of old friends excited you're moving back to the east. I wish I could be one waiting to welcome you to your new home, but instead I'll just have to wait until you go on the Buckhead Church UK tour.</p>ReaginTue, 07 Aug 2007 15:50:06 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512118<p>I'm a couple days behind in my blog reading, so I just saw this post. Blessings to you and your family and I admire you stepping out of your comfort zone and following the Lord's leading in your life.</p>SteveTue, 07 Aug 2007 13:38:30 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512128<p>Wow! If you turned right instead of left, you'd be closer to us here in Newnan, GA. We've been here for two years, transplants from Los Angeles, and loving the trees and the seasons. May God bless you in your new ministry opportunity.</p>JackieTue, 07 Aug 2007 10:33:16 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512126<p>Congratulations, Los. Only a handful of people on the planet ever get an opportunity of that magnitude. Remember.</p><p>But I'm not surprised they want you. And not surprised God sent you. Your heart is your greatest asset: warm, tender and fun. Buckhead will be blessed.</p><p>They say that once a year, God picks up the U.S. by the east coast and all the loose nuts roll west. So what does that make you....?</p><p>I'm just glad you're not going to Texas. Phew.</p>MarkTue, 07 Aug 2007 08:43:26 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512125<p>Well, I've always felt that the Left coast was the Correct coast...but since you're going to the right coast I'll wish you and your family the best of luck and happiness. God will provide and has obviously called. Have fun and keep blogging. You and Alex got me into this so you can't bail on me now!</p>ChrisTue, 07 Aug 2007 02:02:37 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512124<p>I can't believe that you would want to leave Riverside. I mean, the air quality is so good here. :) I am excited for the new adventure that God is leading you on. I will be praying for you and your fam.</p>Casey AnguloTue, 07 Aug 2007 01:18:17 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512122<p>Dang.

Please, please, please, make sure we can talk before you go. Face to face. It has been a long time, but I want to tell you something. Let's nail a day or night down where we can chill for a bit. Much love and respect to you. God bless you for doing what God wants you to.</p>the bearMon, 06 Aug 2007 22:20:45 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512119<p>Brah! Welcom to Atlanta where the players play....haha! Man I'm so excited for you and your family. You'll be surrounded more great people in the NP/Buckhead community and fantastic leaders and worshippers! I'm a few hours up 75 in Knoxvegas (gotta come hike the Smokies with us!) and will surely run into you soon at Northpoint or Buckhead when I'm down visiting one of my umpteen million times! Love you man! We'll be holding you, the family, and Sandals up!</p>Bobby BDub WilliamsMon, 06 Aug 2007 21:56:35 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512120<p>I was hoping for a west on the 60 and heading down to Saddleback!! Dang! Guess I'll just have to fly out to see my folks and come see ya. We have a small group conference out there next year, so maybe I'll drop by. Not like you know me! I am thankful that internet connection works in Atlanta, so I will still be able to follow your adventures. I think they have weight watchers too. :) God Bless you and you family. Your ministry reaches far and wide... so many are blessed. Can't wait to hear more about this next chapter.</p>TiNAMon, 06 Aug 2007 21:32:00 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512148<p>hey los...eric has been filling us in on your journey. we're excited that you are moving "home" to GA....you may call the west coast home....but your old stomping grounds are in the ATL!! and good 'ole BC is close by! heather needs to experience Mountain Day this year!</p><p>i hope we can see you and heather soon and meet your beautiful kiddos!!<br>keri</p>keriMon, 06 Aug 2007 21:01:39 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512113<p>Los. You made the ball roll. You innovated. You encouraged. You nurtured. The responsibility that you leave behind is HUGE. My roll is going to change. Everybody's roll is going to change. Change needs to happen. Your position can not be filled. Your a rare breed. God has given you the ability to wear two hats. That of a creative leader and a worship leader. For the rest of us who are apart of your team, we would be cheating Sandals Church if we let things slip. We need to exceed the place where you brought us. I believe you equipped us all with the necessary knowledge and abilities to make things even greater for His kingdom.</p><p>i hope you flip Northpoint on their butts. I pray that you can show them what AUTHENTICITY is buddy. You have shown that to me.</p><p>I am not saying goodbye to you. Your still here until September. But I miss you already man.</p><p>I am so going to jack your office.</p><p>love J Rocka.</p>justin aka j rockaMon, 06 Aug 2007 20:04:06 -0000http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2007/08/thank-you-sandals-church-and-hello/#comment-3512117<p>Anne Jackson beat me!
