Just A Few More Days!

     Well, if you're reading this blog, welcome! Two years have passed quickly since last we were together. At that time, I was in the middle of chemotherapy and exhausted much of the time. Now, with no sign of cancer, I'm preparing to head off again with the wonderful folks at FBC Beverly, this time to Plymouth, North Carolina. We will be working with a group called CROSS, which is a ministry of the Plymouth United Methodist Church. Some of us are traveling by van and leaving Friday, July 29. Others are coming via plane and leaving on Saturday. Still more will meet us there. We come from far and wide, by varying means, but our focus is the same...showing God's great love through our service and fellowship with others. We go where there is need and we always meet wonderful people from all stations in life, varying races, colors, creeds, ethnicities, etc... But we all share one thing in common: being unique, beloved children of the Living God. We always learn something and we hope to teach as well. But no matter what happens, we always grow in ways that surprise each of us and we always come home with great stories to tell.

     Follow us as we go and join us when we return to hear more and perhaps be inspired to join the next trip. Sign up for a free account in order to leave comments, please. We love to hear from you, even though you are just a text, call or email away. We love to know that someone is watching out for us while we're gone, praying for our travels, and looking forward to hearing more from us.

     Oh, I'm the cook for the first time this year.  The menu is shaping up nicely.  I'll share a little preview with you in these three words...Baked. Potato. Bar.

     See you soon!
