Safely Home - Full Week Ahead

Made it home with Nelda today despite warnings of freezing rain on the return trip. We got rain all the way, but missed the icing that dumped itself on Georgia rather than ourselves. Was kinda foggy and cold through the Smokies in Tennessee but most of the trip was made in good time.

Sheri begins her chemo next week and will follow with radiation and other therapy, but we pray that by August she will have it behind her, including any traces of cancer. Pray with us that the Lord will give her the healing and help she needs and that her family will enjoy having her with them for many years to come.

Bad news on return regarding Jim Elmore's dad's passing this morning. Know he is with the LORD in heaven and will greet us all one day. He was a really good man, loved the Lord and faithful. He will be missed by his family. Glad Jim and his family could be with him at the end.

Lots to do this week, getting ready for Lenten services and planning for the new year. Want to involve the leadership and the congregation in helping all our members become regular in their worship and more active in fellowship in the Word and in fellowship. We have a great congregation and with our energy and faith I'm confident that Trinity will meet the challenge to faithfulness.

Meanwhile I'm glad to have Nelda home again. We (Liz, Nina and I) really missed her.
