About Me

I'm ok. Sometimes I have an aditude and sometimes I don't. You deside! I left Ohio. in 77 to go to Emporia, My intrem assignment was Cincinnati, Ohio, as a WOW branch leader, After Christmas Vince thought it would be better if I were to serve as an autobody repair guy with Roman Stechew at his body shop in Powell,Ohio. It was called Fleet Autocraft, a christian owned and operated business. I was there till I got fired then went back after a few months,all totaled about 3 or 4years. while that was going on: I got horney, went LOA, got married, had kids, got old, got divorced, never quite made it back to the Corps. And I did all that in the great state of Ohio. I am really super thankful for the learning I received both in Fellowlaborers and the Corps. It is sorta sad that the ministry went to shit though. I have 3 ex wives, 2.5 wonderful kids, no pets (I shot'em) the pets, not the kids or the wives. (That was a joke, you dumb ass I didn't shoot my pets) I quit smoking Mar. '07. That's a big deal cause I smoked all my life, well since I was 8. OH! get off my ass, Yes I could buy them, back then stores didn't care, as long as they could make a sale, you know that!!

Happy birthdayJohn. I think I like your profile as one of the best I have read. It makes me laugh in all its honesty. I can sorta understand. (Except for the pets thing.)

Anyway, I hope you have a good one.
Chris (Pervanje) Perkins April 5, 2009 at 7:17pm

OMG - I laughed so hard when I read your profile - such a "smarty pants" you are (that was a nice way of saying it). Why am I not surprised?!

Such fond memories of you in Fellow Laborers. Wonderful, wonderful to see you again. Hugs, Chris

I did have a child during our interm year. Then we came back into the corps as family 4th. It was a blast delivering a baby during a Corp program....and it was the natural way too! Poor Joanne. 1st and last child that way!
We sayed in Chile as Country coordinators for a long time and 12 years ago we came back to US to settled down ad dedicate time to my now 4 kids. We're all doing great and the work of God's ministry in Chile is in very good hads.

John,
I do remember you.I even came across an old photo of us standing in the organic garden in Fellow Laborers just last month.How did Boise happen you ask.... well, after four years in New Jersey, I was sitting talking with Vince Finnegan and Joe Guarini about the Corps getting involved in the WOW program. I thought it would be fun for an assignment so.... I ended up in Boise in 1982 and fell in love with the city , the mountains etc. and I'm still here. How did you end up back in Ohio? It was good to hear from you. Gwen
Lee Tabor April 9, 2008 at 4:53pm

You knew me John. I was one of the WOW's in Cincinnati back then. It would be cool to make a list of all of us. I think there were 28, 7 families. I'll try:
1. You
2. Debi Washington
3. John Alspaw
4. Hal Ayer
5. Alison Burroughs
6. Stephanie Korioth
7. Me (Lee Tabor)
8. Bob Thayer
9. Peggy Koerselman
10. Dan (Big Dan with the red Barracuda)
11. Mike Farmer
12. Martha and her 2 kids
13. Dan's girlfriend (I think they got married)
I can remember more, I just can't recall their names.
I worked at a donut shop and would bring big bags of the day old donuts to the meetings and all you guys would chow on them. That was hilarious. I recall Alison walking every morning down to the corner to hitchike to work. She'd get a ride in about 5 seconds every day.
What a trip!
