Tower Hill, IL
"For a great door and effectual is opened unto me..." - but, in our case, it was a window! As we climbed out of the van in the Walmart parking lot, a lady, seeing our trailer, pulled up next to us. She asked how our travels fared and allowed us to sing to her. Once again, God had an appointment for us to testify of His great grace!
Winding country roads brought us to Knob's Hill Baptist Church. We were greatly encouraged to find familiar friends once again: Hannah knew Pastor Miller's family and we knew Adam Hubbart, the assistant pastor, a Crown gradutate. It was exciting to see a few teens in the service who were picked up by the church's van route. God worked in a mighty way during the service. 
That night, we had a restful stay with Art and Shirly Murphy. Mrs. Murphy is a wonderful artist on canvas and quilt. We enjoyed asking her about the quilts and found quilt making to be the "mother of patience." One quilt took her almost twenty years to finish because she researched different butterflies and hand embroidered each one with no two alike!
