Some of our congregation

We had a farewell party for a couple in our church that is moving to be a part of another church in our denomination, due to a new job. This picture represents several of the families of our church, although there were several not able to be there. There are around 80 people total in our congregation. If you click on the picture I think it will enlarge it.

This week...

Only have a sec here, today is a busy packing day. But, I wanted to briefly update what has happened the last few days here. Our dearest friends, the M family, had a very serious accident and we are so thankful for God's sparing mercies. R was out working as usual on the property and a guard from his big mower came crashing down on him. We estimate it was about 1,000 pounds that hit him in the chest. After calling 911 and S, it was determined there were no broken bones, but he was of course in alot of pain. His wife K drove up from NC to be with him. He went in for xrays, and praise the Lord there were no broken bones, internal bleeds, or damaged organs. Surely the Lord's angels were protecting our dear friend. They have spent the last 3 nights here until he felt able to make the drive back to NC. We are just praising the Lord for His mercies in sparing R.

Today I will be busy packing us up to head to AR very early in the morning. We are looking forward to the time with family and relaxation out on the lake. We plan on returning Tuesday.

I am posting a video of my dad and brother's recent adventure. Dad had business out in Colorado. While there he got to spend some great time with my brother, who will be leaving this fall for Air Force boot camp. This was one of their escapades...
