Flora, Illinois
Our time at Calvary Baptist Church with Pastor Mike Evans began with dinner at the church with his family Friday evening. We enjoyed this time of fellowship with them. Saturday we went visiting door-to-door in the neighborhood surrounding the church and had the opportunity to share the gospel. Before going out, Pastor Evans took us for breakfast at "Grandma's Kitchen." After singing before our meal, we were pleased to meet Samatha Lusk's (a Crown student)grandfather. He treated us to our breakfast and came to hear us sing on Sunday. Thank you, Mr. Lusk!
Later that afternoon we joined with the church family in a picnic at the park. Tiffany won the fishing contest for the girls by catching the most fish (6). We enjoyed delicious food and all went for a "train ride." Thank you to the Fredericks family who did much of the preparation for the picnic.
Sunday morning Mr. Swain taught the adult Sunday school and preached in the morning service. We sang in both Sunday school and church and taught a lesson in the junior church. This church family was such a great encouragement to us as we ministered here. (Pastor's two sons and one daughter are missing from the family picture because they were helping on the church bus!)
Thank you to the Harley family for allowing us to stay in your comfortable guest house and to all those who provided meals and treats for us. You spoiled us and we loved it!
