We (Bruce, Martha, Sarah and myself) have just returned from an exhausting weekend of driving. We were in Michigan for the Super Sabbath event and district board meeting. The service was nice but I found it hard to enjoy because of extreme fatigue. We did however sneak a nap Sabbath afternoon and boy what a difference that made!
We stayed with the Sextons (Jack and Sandy), they are super hosts and dear brethren! They shared a video called the "Truth Project". It is very stirring and I would love to see more. It would be a great tool to use in our church! I would say our fellowship with the Sextons and the viewing of this video were the highlight of the trip. It was also stunningly beautiful at there home and the Spring Vale campus. We ate dinner, Friday evening, on their deck with candles lit and the sun setting with purple and pinks reflecting on large pond and over the grassy fields outside of their home. A group of geese sailed across the darkening sky in their usual v shape, and it made the sunset even more beautiful and the evening that more peaceful!
We also visited with Joannah (Martha's daughter) in Lansing, MI and found that there is a strong group of christian youth that are a super support for her there.
As we remember the Atonement of Christ this day may your heart and mind be turned toward Him and the wonderful plan of salvation that has been laid out for us!
