COMING New Concourse ~ 2021/22


We celebrate the End of a 5 Year+ Endeavor.
From 2015 - 2020 this Campbell Carrier site has
logged the Journey of God's Faithfulness
with our family, and we eagerly anticipate
the Next Missional Adventure!
COMING 2021/22 
 
Thank you all for the support and prayers,
we will be in touch soon, but for now we rest in the mystery
and the security of knowing 
He is a lamp unto our path, and a light unto our feet...

Final Boarding Call - Hyperlinks

Phil from the Future
1994...2017/2018/2019/2020/2021/2022 

To be semi-transparent - there have been a few blog-posts that were written but remain unpublished.  Perhaps one day when, we have more perspective, the crisis' have past, and God makes a way to amplify his glory through them this side of heaven - then we may publish them.  For now the Mission, Financial, Mortgage, Vehicle, Appliance, Covid, Surgery, Tornado, Job Disciplacement stories will have to remain unspoken (unpublished).  

What we can say with Sober-Confidence:

We are grateful for our family, friends, church, and greater community that has loved on us and allowed us to mutually speak into their lives.  All the more, we don't have enough superlatives in our vocabulary, lyrics of a song, or strokes of a paint brush to convey our praise to Jesus - the author and perfector of our unfolding story.  Our Faith, Hope, and Love has been exponentially increased for God and others - through our extended time planted in Park Rapids, MN. [The Campbell Family saga goes back to Thanksgiving of 1994... lots of memories made... impactful life experiences... and transformative Kingdom of God Stuff].

It is in a posture of prayer and hope that we hold loosely the past and present, and lay it all on the altar.  Trusting that the next move will be equally tranformative, if not an even greater harvest of Kingdom stuff. We are putting the entirety of ourselves, our livelyhoods, our home, our children, our ministry, our people into the offering plate of obedience and trusting that our next venture will be in the Lord's hands.  

...But everything that was a gain to me, I considered to be a loss because of Christ.  More than that, I also consider everthing to be a loss in view of the supassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of Him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them filth, so that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own from the law, but one that is through faith in Christ - the righteousness from God based on faith.  My goal is to know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being coformed to His death, assuming that I will somehow reach the resurretion from among the dead.  Not that I have already reached the goal or am already fully mature, but I make every effort to take hold of it because I also have been taken hold of by Christ Jesus.  Brothers, I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it.  But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and reaching forwar to what is ahead.  I pursue as my goal the prize promised by God's heavenly call in Christ Jesus... (Philippians 3 HCSB)

...and so we trust that He's got this, over a quarter of a century we put behind us and press on to His Next calling...

We leave you with above exhortation to encourage you.  We covet your prayers as we move forward, and we leave you with the following hyperlinks as a celebration & thank offering.  If you wish to follow us forward you can find our rebrand, as well as our prayer & support team. @ vantagepointllc.blogspot.com

Preview 2021 Pain Clinic

 

New Imaging reveals source of Tension Migraines 

Besides the arthritis, I have 3 discs that are degenerate in my upper spine [C3-C4, C4-C5, C6-C7] the worst of it below my C3. In addition bone spurs & nerves are being pinched with muscles that are locked up - this is the root/source of why all the neck/headaches for the past 5 Plus Years. 

...and no more merely treating symptoms! 

2021 Pain Clinic Preview

1]Traction Physical Therapy [Park Rapids]

2] Spinal Epidural Cortisone Shot [Detroit Lakes]

3] Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy [St. Cloud]

4] Burn targeted nerves along the Spine [Fargo]

5] Continue NUCCA Chiropractic [Duluth]


FEB 2021 UPDATE:
PRP Treatment underway

March 2021 Update:
Treatment didn't go so well on the front end.
Limited Medication to stymie the pain.
Did not do well at all being stripped of my pain meds in February.
On top of that I had an allergic reaction that
brought me to my knees in the Emergency Room 
a week after the PRP Treatment.
I'm heading into April with Physical Therapy.
I can put on a mediocre face around people in public, 
but @ home I'm Sleeping in a Recliner,
setting up with a neck brace,
and wondering when/if the treatment 
will be worth it

Oh yeah by the way, my insurance bailed on me.
So it's is sort of a double whammy.
Not only can I not revisit the specialist in St. Cloud [Rejuv Medical]
But they wont even let me pay out of pocket expenses.
It's a little frustrating.

We will see what April brings.
I'm so grateful for friends, family, 
and an extended church family that has my back.

April Update:
Church Leadership launching me on
a 3 Month Sabbatical

May Update:
I ended up having a 
Full RIGHT HIP Replacement,
with my left getting switched out,
this fall/winter due to complications,
with my new right hip being too long.
[Temporarily fitting me for a heel insert]

June Update:
Mismeasurement/calculation during surgery
 lead to 3/4 to a full inch longer right leg post surgery.
While debating to extend the left hip surgically fall'21 
the same distance in order to match the right.
more complications: the right hip flexor (now longer)
is froze up beyond rehab treatment.
so do we go back in and shorten the right?
do I do repair work on the tendon?
or do I assume it all works out when / if we lengthen the left?

stay tuned for more 2021 lowlights...

Sept Update:
Rehab through the summer 
Get a 2nd opinion
Check into Mayo?

October Update:



It's Gonna Be OK

Small Group ~ In Flight Movie

We have been launching small groups
at our Church, via Student Ministries
during the Covid Outbreak.
As a means to connect with our church family and ministries
that have not been able to meet since Quarantine had us pinned down
this resource has been a great platform to reignite the paradigm of 
Connect Groups, Life Groups, or whatever you wish to call them.

Friday Nov. 20th we opened our doors 
For a Large Group Event.
For the first time in over 8 months 
We gathered as a student ministry,  
and a network of other ministries 
including the local chapter of FCA... 
for a Large Group of Small Group!
