It's a Party (I think)

A few days ago I blogged about how much I love people.  Last Tuesday afternoon, a lady in our building hosted a "Building Party."  Linda and I had been thinking of doing the same thing but thought we'd wait until it got a little cooler.

One lady commented that her husband past away and no one had even noticed.  How sad!!!!  Well, we can fix that - it will just take time and more parties.

Keep praying for these events as they will be foundational in our starting a church in this community.
