Sunday Morning Feb 25th

 Well Saturday was a busy fun filled day with some delicious eatin' for our supper at SRBC with "steak out" ending missions week with close to 250 folks in attendance. Nancy and I volunteered in the kitchen which you could imagine was very busy but there were plenty of help before, during and afterwards. The food was very good and plentiful.

I had started the day with my usual before 6 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for comfort and healing, all are holding as of this post. We headed out around 10 to Keswick School to watch the final basketball games for the youths and Eliza scored 3 baskets as her team won 1st place in the tournament. She was awesome both on scoring and defense through out the games. One of the players on the other team and in her class also goes to church with us and he helped in the kitchen last evening along with his parents. He is such a sweet and very nice young boy and we really like him.

We came back for a late lunch and I finished the last of the Zuppa soup and then Nancy put several sweet taters in to bake for the supper at church. needles to say they dripped onto the bottom of the oven and now she has a mess to clean up. I told her to put foil on the bottom but what do I know. We headed over to the fellowship hall around 2'ish and worked there until after 8 last evening. It was a fun time and we got to know our missionaries from Brazil, Argentina, Australia and Japan. I've been to Australia and Japan but never made it down to South America. It was a fun time and we both love serving fellow Believers especially at SRBC.

It was after 8 before we got home so I hit the shower and was soon watching some "mountain men" show on the TV in the bedroom until 10, then it was lights out for me. Today we work the front doors at the second service and then we are being taken out for a delicious brunch in Clearwater by the Nymark's as a reward for Nancy getting Sheri a great travel client from Sparta. This place we are going is by reservation only and the food is very good and such an assortment from breakfast to dinner with such a variety prepared by chefs who know how to cook. We have been there once before on their dime and while it is pricey but oh so good, we are looking forward to the dining and of course the fellowship, LATER
