“You are going to feel like hell if you never write the stuff that is tugging on the sleeves of your heart — your stories, visions, memories, visions and songs. Your truth, your version of things, your own voice. That is really all you have to offer us. And that’s also why you were born.”

Louisville Today

We came to Louisville this morning for dental appointments. I’m getting a temporary crown (Major investment. At current prices, I should consider bequeathing my dental work when I die. It will probably be worth more than the rest of my estate. I wonder if that can be done?)

I stopped by Okolona Church of Christ and visited with Gary Smith and Mike. Good to see Bob, Larry and Linda. OCC has reached a milestone in their  history. They have hired a full-time custodian/maintenance person.

We’re having dinner with Adam and Emily and then going to our Bible study. It will be late getting back home. It has been a good day so far.

Old Fashion Christmas

Today is the Wilmore Old Fashion Musical Christmas. Melissa, Ryan, Kyle, Tyler and Madison came last night and we plan to enjoy the festivities. We will also find time for the chess tournament that Jerod has today. Meredith has a dress rehersal for her Christmas play. She is playing a sheep and has a speaking role. We will start with a pancake breakfast. I am looking forward to the day.

Ann has put out some decorations. I’m singing “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas”. We will celebrate the beginning of Advent with the seminary students Sunday afternoon. I am thankful for the opportunities to be reminded that God has come to earth and redeemed his people.

Early

It is 3:30am and we are preparing to depart for Louisville. It has been an interesting and profitable week for me as relates to CM and the work here. I am anxious to see what God has planned for this work. At this time it looks as if we may be relocating the NO mission to the Milne Boys Home property in Gentilly.
