Video & update

Here is a video clip of our church in Easley, SC; Patricia's parents and Bro. Going the pastor. Thought you might want to see it.

There is a viewing in IN on Friday, from 11-1 and the funeral up here is at 1. Junior and I are going to try and go.

I called Bro. Going tonight and it was so good to hear his voice! I guess I have missed Easley Bible Methodist more than I realized. Anyhow, please continue to pray for Brent; he is really suffering as anyone in his shoes would, and there is a viewing and memorial service in Easley tomorrow evening.

Bro. Going told me this evening that our current pastor, Bro. Mowery, would be a good pastor, as we probably already had found out. I told him we had found that out! We love Bro. Going, and we love Bro. Mowery. They are alike in many ways. We also love our associate pastor and his wife; the Johnson's. They are such sweet people!

Yesterday Bro. Mowery preached about helping each other. It touched my heart; because we are so struggling financially and I didn't know if I had anything I could give. He said if each family gave 2 potatoes (not a whole bag) to a family who needed food, then there would be enough potatoes for that family. I am paraphrasing, but this is what I got out of it. We all do have something to give. It may be small, but we can help someone. He said we will share in this economic crises; cut the meat in half if necessary. Isn't that wonderful?

I received a call this evening asking if we needed money. Of course, we need money, and they asked how much, and I said I was not saying. Whatever they wanted to give would be very much appreciated. God is taking care of us. We haven't missed a meal up to this point. We are still eating meat from that big bag of meat that was given to us on Christmas Eve. Junior went to a temp agency today and they had NOTHING! Some people like to remind us sometimes that Junior left a good job in SC. But it was already slowing down there before he even quit. So he doesn't know if he would have a job if he would have stayed there anyhow. Oh, and we found out he may be able to go to school and get paid for it. He can continue his education in the auto-cad, etc., and get paid for it. We have a man in our church who is a professor at a school pretty close to us; don't know the name of or location right now. That would great on his resume if Junior was actually certified in this area! So we will see what works out.

Keep praying for us.
