I stopped by the office Saturday afternoon to check my e-mail and found that someone had broken in. I called Tre, our worship pastor, because I knew he lives close. We checked out the building together and at first saw not much more than the broken window and blood stains on light switches as whoever it was had apparently gone from office to office.

Tre worked on boarding up the window and I left. It was later that afternoon that we found out Sandy's laptop had been stolen. As Tre looked more we found the laptop we use for church gone as well. I woke up in the middle of the night and remembered that I hadn't seen Laura's laptop in our office and it was taken along with two of our point and shoot digital cameras.

This morning we found the person also took a large jar of money (about $50) from Tyrone's desk from his candy sales and other youth fundraisers.

It's an eerie feeling to walk into what I consider "my" office to know someone who wasn't invited and doesn't belong had been there taking things. There was definitely a period of fear that I've never had while being here as I thought about it all.

I am not sure yet what our insurance will cover, or if we have reached the deductible, but I know that God will provide. Please join me in praying for a convicted heart of whoever it was that broke in and that God's justice would be served.
