The weekend.......

Dad and I did some running around on Friday morning and then on Saturday mom and I did our shopping. We saw a movie in the evening and then just hung out.

Sunday morning we went to worship. Their regular minister, Jeff, was away for the holidays so my brother, Mike, preached. Afterwards, I asked him if he was ready to give up his job and take on a preaching position and he just chuckled..................

He spoke about the Church, the purpose for it and how it was established. He started in the beginning with the creation of man, discussed how man sinned and yet God continued to want a relationship with man. The birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus gives us hope for that relationship.
We must accept the teachings of the Bible as truth if we want to enter that relationship. This is the same message we are sharing in Guatemala and it is the same message that every person needs to hear and understand.

After lunch, I drove to Winston Salem and spent some time with Sally and her family. It is always good to see her mom, Linda, her aunts, her cousins and their wives. Sally had brewed some Navidad ponche, Christmas punch, that I brought from Guatemala. Mom is brewing some right now.........which I need to go and check on :)
