Busy at church

I had the opportunity to preach this past Sunday morning at Morning Star Baptist Church. Our pastor is out of town pursuing an adoption opportunity in South Carolina. I am busy with all of the extra pastoral duties in his absense plus the other duties that I currentlly have. What a great day we had on Sunday--to hear our congregation sing, to hear the Word preached, and to fellowship with the body of Christ!

We also enjoyed our fellowship with both the Koloch's Sunday afternoon at their home as well as a pancake feast at our house after the evening service. We had the Musgraves, Scotts, Karen, Mel, and Barb over as I made Swedish pancakes. I know, it's an odd menu after an evening service--usually we have sandwiches and popcorn!

We love the fellowship at our church--you can let your hair down and be yourself. We know that we are all depraved sinners, so judgmentalism is OUT THE WINDOW!

Margaret is able to minister today to a woman and her children who are interested in our church. She and her husband are a great couple who are moving up from Georgia. Margaret invited them to the Gordon's to swim--see Gordon's, we are using your heated, indoor pool for ministry! I think our kids are enjoying the ministry too as well as getting exercise for gym class.
