Sweet Alabama

Ministry Update

The meeting with Brother Nate Clark in Richmond, VA closed on Wednesday and we actually got to be home on Thursday afternoon. That was short-lived, however – we were in Greenville, SC by Thursday evening. After spending Friday morning with my parents, we left and spent the night in Conyers, GA at Gethsemane Baptist Church. From there it was all the way to Mobile, AL today. We are to be here through Wednesday night in a revival meeting.

Family Update

We are thankful to be in warm weather again. The trees and flowers are all in bloom here, which makes it so beautiful! Josiah and Abigail have had runny noses since we have been in the blooming areas, a fact that causes me to think that she might have allergies to the pollens as well. Please pray especially for Josiah during the next few weeks. The past two years he has been in the hospital for several days around the second week of April because of all the pollen. We are hoping and praying that his daily medication will make a difference this year, and that we will not have to endure another hospital ordeal.

The inevitable has happened – Dolly was left behind in a restaurant the other day. For those of you who do not know, Dolly is Abigail’s constant companion. She sleeps with her, drags her around the yard, takes her to church, etc. So, it was not until we had driven several miles before I realized that Dolly was gone. Thankfully, we were only a few miles from where we left her, so it took about 30 minutes total time to retrieve the doll. We now have a new rule – Dolly is not allowed to go to restaurants anymore. If we had been much farther down the road, it would have been a sad separation.
