As Darlene, Debbie and I made the journey from Verdunville to Columbus,  Ohio in preparation for our early flight, many emotions went through my heart and mind. I feel that I am blessed to have the best congregation that any pastor could want. All ages were involved in the Christmas dinner we had right after Sunday School.  Not just in eating after Worship, but in true Fellowship. I began to reflect on our visitors and their comments on the sermon the Holy Spirit gave me entitled " Sacrifice." Their responses and words of encouragement were very uplifting. Then to hear the congregation with their encouraging comments telling me to "Stay the course,"  and "Keep preaching the way you are."

 

We finally arrived around 6 PM at the motel Sunday Night. After sorting a  few electrical cords and gadgets, I made several phone calls and answered emails. The wind chill of Columbus made me appreciate the weather we were having in Logan.
