Friday’s Face — I think you’ll be very, very pleased.

Oh, don’t pretend like you didn’t see it coming. After coming to our, um, bird rescue late last week, how could I not name Jeff as this week’s Friday Face?

The fact that 98% of you all recognized Jeff’s hotness in the comment section of a particular post also helped in my decision to bestow the honor of FF on him. I give the interlings what they demand.

FURTHERMORE, because you have been The Best Interlings Ever This Week, I have a treat for you at the end of this post. You see, I didn’t tell you but we actually edited out parts of the bird capture video. I’ve kept one little gem of a part to share with you today. Not only does it include Jeff The Hottie, but it also includes my first musical gift to you.

Try not to be jealous of my impressive singing skills. I was invited to go on tour with Celine last year, but once she heard me practicing my opening act, she totally forced me off the tour.

Anyway, sit back and enjoy the gift of Jeff-ness that I am bestowing on you this rainy Friday morning. He’s been a gift to Starlite and me for several years now.

Hello, Jeff-ey. Do you mind it when I call you that?

I actually prefer Jeff-Fah-Fah, but whatever…

Okay. I can work with that. So, tell the interlings what your “job” in Starlite is using your own, adorable words.

Sometimes I think my job is to put a smile on everyone’s face — cause I’m very easy to laugh with or at… I haven’t figured out which one yet. But on that dark, deep, secret, serious side of me, my “job” in Starlite is to role play Jesus {in Starlite dramas at special events}. It’s my attempt to offer a glimpse of a picture of what Jesus does for his children throughout their lives so as to remind those who are faint of heart how much the Lord loves them.

Talk about being faint of heart. You’ve done more with us than any of our other male volunteers. Best memory so far?

One of my best memories is actually being accepted by all of you girls from a ministry that deals with only girls. That’s one for the record books! But the most memorable moments with Starlite have been the late night drama practices. And the many ambiguous proposals of marriage from the head of Starlite herself.

I have no idea what you could be referring to, Jeff-Fah-Fah. Give us the behind the scenes perspective of what Starlite’s really like from a guy’s perspective.

Starlite is the sum of all fears — no adults, no rules, anything goes as long as it can be covered by the Starlite credit card.

Jeff! First of all, I am definitely an adult. Secondly, I think we have plenty of rules but I’ll be happy to throw some more in for you. And lastly, there is no such thing as the “Starlite credit card.” That’s actually my credit card we use to get everyone dinner off Wendy’s dollar menu after sleepovers.

Again, on that dark, deep, secret, serious side of me, Starlite is one of the greatest ministries I have ever worked with because the people you meet in it act the same “off the clock” from the ministry. Genuine, real and brutally fun to be around.

So other than being Starlite’s main man, what are you studying in college?

I don’t in any way consider myself to be Starlite’s “main man,” but I do kind of role play that person. I’m studying a Wah-Wonderful Double Major in Public Relations and Marketing.

And what do you want to do with that degree other than marry one of my Starlite leaders?

I don’t know if I’ll marry a Starlite leader or volunteer, but ever since I became involved with the ministry, my standards have been raised by everyone involved in the ministry. (This is a compliment in case I wrote it incorrectly.) I want to first and foremost know God and make Him known. I would also like to work for a ministry-oriented corporation such as Compassion, traveling the world and seven seas (while still waiting for that one amazing bride-to-be).

Jeff, we love you.

And now, I present “Jeff: The Bonus Feature.” Feel free to send me thank you notes for this one.

Poor Jeff. I have a feeling that he’ll propse one day w/ a ring wrapped around the ankle of a dead bird. You’ll scream so crazily, that he won’t know if it’s because of the bird, or the excitement of becoming his bride.

I can see the future, oh yes I can.

Your singing is beautiful…almost as beautiful as mine, but not quite :)

Jeff is just playing hard-to-get ;)

I laughed and laughed ! You really crack me up and are a kindred spirit in humor. Ah, it’s hard being so funny isn’t it. The fame, the fortune. Celine really missed out. Gerr Celine….gerr

This whole bird thing sort of takes me back to a time when we were 12 and trying to get a frog out of the garage…

Bahahaha!! So does Jeff fall under the “wild man of Jesus” category? :)

So funny! Have you ever considered doing a video interview for Friday’s Face? It might be fun…
