    I have corresponded with brother Sewell about copies of my hymns, but am not sure if we've ever met. Hope your meeting goes well! We're in one in Cleveland, TX.

    "It's 10:00. Where are your children?" In gospel meetings! Jacob and Ellen are having one, too, this week.

    Our house guest is easy...non-demanding and low maintenance...how is yours? lol!

    Having visiting preachers in our home has always been a joy. I, too, remember the first one-
    Bro. A. Hugh Clark. He was the preacher at the College congregation when we were in ACC.
    I had him up on a pedestal. I remember my first meal with him--I fixed oyster stew, and it was
    gritty!! But he made me feel "at home", instead of vice-versa. Have a Great week!

    So...I had good intentions of coming over this week but I have just been to busy with school work. I hope you guys have a good last night of the meeting tomorrow. Tell Norman that Caleb Gerber from the singing school says hi! I think he might remember me. We had Richard Morison's sight singing class together a lot.

Gospel Meeting

Gospel Meeting at the Warrenton Church of Christ started today with Micky Galloway.

Monday-Friday, 7:30 each night.

Hope you can attend! You would encourage us with your presence, and I'm sure you will be encouraged too.

Angels are singing!

Well I usually don't post this often, but I had to share this GOOD NEWS! Tonight Morgan Cupp decided to put on Christ in baptism! Yes, that's right, we have another new sister:
Photobucket
Morgan is a beautiiful 13 years old girl, inside and out. She has a loving heart that wants to serve God and do what is right. Nick and I have had the wonderful privilege of getting to know Morgan over the past few months. She has encouraged us with her service and dedication to God, in spite of the FAR from perfect background she comes from. You see, Morgan has been adopted and is being raised by her aunt & uncle. It is truly a miracle to me to see girls like Morgan and Allie make the mature decision to dedicate their lives to Christ, in the face of so many obstacles. I have never had to face the challenges these girls face in their lives on a daily basis. Their courage and strength is amazing. I wish you all could know them personally and understand their stories because I know they would be such an encouragement to each of you.

Praise be to God for His mercy and loving kindness and gift of eternal life!

Here is Morgan with her sister, Raegan, and uncle, Ross.

Morgan, you already knew what it meant to be adopted by your earthly family, NOW you've been adopted into God's family. We love you and are SO incredibly proud of you!

What to do on a cold day in MO?

We are having a great time with Mama and Gene in town! Yesterday we went to the arch and St. Louis Zoo. This morning we had a guided tour of the Daniel Boone House, which was quite interesting.
Photobucket
Then we had to take them to White Castle, since they don't have one in TX. Funny how something can seem so good when it's something you can't have on a regular basis.

Next, Mama decided that she wanted to try something new on her hair. So I got to dye her hair, something I'd never done. (She did know this, but still wanted me to do it!)

Before:

She has to get used to seeing herself in the mirror, but I think it's a good new look on her!
  • anitaj
    White Castle and hair-dying in one day -- your mom certainly is adventurous when she's around her daughter.

  • sweett
    Good job on the dyeing! You must have watched Monica do it a lot and just picked it up! ;) A lady came into work Monday to work on the computer and she looked just like your mom. Hilarious!
