Well, first...to ease everyone's mind...Grant said he has returned all of Dale Graschelle's tools! Dale enjoyed hearing that! He also said for Grant to borrow whatever he needed. (But not to forget the sign out sheet!) This conversation with the both of them has been great fun. Dale is better and really wants to get back home to Carolyn and his shop. He told me Friday he was going home Saturday...but it hasn't happened unless it did today. Carolyn is doing OK but with her fibroid arthritis, she has good and bad days. They both are thankful for prayers and God's presence in their lives.
Since Johnny's funeral last week, Marge Barrett hasn't felt at all well. She was battling a cold for the last couple weeks and just had to have a restful letdown 'til today. She is feeling a little better and thinks she and Julie will be back to church Sunday. We had a wonderful visit and prayer together. She once again commented about her love for the fantastic church family she has!
Julie remains very diligent and attentive to her mother's needs and is right there for her. These long standing pillars of New Palestine are very special people!
Floyd Waters was really looking upset last week as he attended the funerals of his church friends. I visited with him today and he said he is thankful for the many wonderful years he had with his now departed church friends. I think that it really hits home hard when some of our "age group" friends begin to pass on. I encouraged him to trust in Jesus and also the Father as it says in John.
Dale and Ann Kitley press on but are glad to see Spring approaching too. I took them some of Anita's famous banana bread. Dale had to reciprocate with a quart of his home brew. No... tomato juice! It is...check that...was really good!
Thank goodness for some warmer weather and sunshine! All of us feel better when the sun shines on us and we recognize the glory of God's amazing Grace that shines on us daily! WE need the encouragement our Christian friends give us too!
Shalom!
