Hello everyone, we got our phone hooked up but it is taking longer to get the internet. I don't know why, but that's the way it is! We won't have it until next Wed.
Well, I want to tell you about our church! Sun a.m. Jr. and Missie went and Bro. Mowery preached a great sermon. Then we all went Sunday night. On Saturday night Preston was crying and saying he wanted to go to his own church in Easley! He was apprehensive about going to the new church. But on Sunday night we all went, and he loved it! What a service we had! God came during the congregational singing, people went to the altar and prayed through; then testimonies, 2 special songs, more testimonies, then several got anointed for physical needs. So after that service, Preston was sold on the church! Missie was touched too by the service. It was such a blessing. From the platform, Bro Mowery said he was glad we were all there, but then singled out Preston and said he was glad Preston was there and that Preston hadn't wanted to leave his church in SC and that he didn't blame him. He said he could understand that as Terry Going had been Preston's pastor. Then he said he was going to try to be as good a pastor to Preston as Bro. Going had been! Isn't that sweet? Bro. Johnson saw him walking up the ramp and went to the door so that Preston would see a familiar face when he walked in the church. Everyone is so nice, friendly, and apparently happy to have us! We are thankful to be there. To be able to walk into the school and see everyone looking like holiness people, is such an awesome experience. Many take it for granted; but not us! We have longed for a holiness school for so long for Missie. She loves her school, and the teachers, principal etc. She has new friends. It is wonderful.
On another note, Missie is having a lot of pain since we moved with her arthritis. I am having a lot of pain too; but I think it is just exhaustion catching up with us. It has been a hard move, and she started school the day after we arrived. So hopefully in a week or two, we will feel better.
Junior started his new job on Monday. They are slow right now, but have some big jobs coming up; but want him because of his experience. He will be getting 40 hrs. right now, so that is ok.
So that is the latest for now. I am almost all unpacked, and I finally got caught up on my laundry.
Talk to you all later!

Hi Norma,
So pleased everything is working out well for you all. Sorry I haven't been around before - the girls started their new school and charlotte started college so it was quite an upheaval but thankfully all are happy and we are now settling into the new routine.
The church sounds really good and I'm so pleased you are all receiving such a warm welcome. Your prayers were answered and I'm sure you will all be happy in your new home.
Take care and as always you are all in my prayers.
