A Week of Birthday Celebrations!
We have celebrated birthdays this week! Belinda's was on Tuesday, the 30th. The first picture shows the gorgeous flowers that her brother and his wife sent. I just love the autumnal colors! Everytime I look at it, I smile. I so love this time of year! The arrival of the flowers really added a festive feel to the parsonage!
After Bible study on Thursday night, Charles drove 3 hours east, to Camp Comica, where he attended a covenant group meeting of the folks who have attended an "Upper Room" affiliated 5-Day Academy. It is a 24-hour "spiritual renewal academy" meeting they have once a quarter.
This morning, he drove to Ogallala, where he attended a United Methodist Church (UMC) training on church records management. On his way home, he dropped off some paperwork to the UMC pastor located in the nearby village called Chappel.
After about a half-hour reunion at home, we went to two different locations to celebrate the 80th birthday parties of two church members! It was great fun to experience the celebratory atmosphere in honor of Warren Johnson and Eleanor Gordon's birthdays.
Praise God that we get to live in communities where folks make the time to get to know one another and develop long-lasting friendships that stand the test of time!
