our church family, Chicago Fil-am came to visit me in December. Of course there were plenty of delicious dishes, followed by lots of singing and caroling and laughter. In the end, donations were made for our church expense. Thanks everyone.. we enjoyed the fellowship with you.
Thanks for sharing those pics - they really show the strong fellowship in your church. Well, I'm grateful for your and Pastor Frendell's ministry and friendship. You both are in my thoughts and prayers. Having hope and faith that God will carry you through...yeah, it's really empowering...so stay strong! You're not alone. The pictures do show that - thanks for sharing that.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Jolynne. And it's been such a delight getting to know you (for me it feels like bits and pieces since I'm gone so much). We really want to spend time with you and Eric.. let's plan for a dinner soon.. and since we're not so far anymore, we can meet closer to you or halfway or something. We may be closer to you on the days Frendell is in MG church. I know I am so blessed to have our church family in my life. I had to swallow my pride and let others in and let them give us comfort and friendship. We are so grateful to have you all in our lives and we are privileged to be a part of your lives as well. God is so true and faithful and loving and He has provided so many people to give us strength and courage to face this. Thank you so much for your prayers and loving concern.. we really appreciate you...
