Weekend

We had a great weekend. We had friends over Saturday night to spend time with the Bouldins, who had come to town for Inman's installation service on Sunday night. Jacob and Benjamin (Russ & Helen's little boy) got to spend time together. We hope they will grow up being friends, their parents sure do love hanging out!
Sunday was a wonderful day too. Sunday night we had an installation service which was a great time of affirmation and looking forward to what the Lord has for our church. We had lots of friends and family come to support us and a great turn out from our new church family. Afterwards was a very nice reception and we got to spend time with friends, old & new.
That night the church "pounded" us! This tradition was started when early settlers would bring a "pound of this and that" to welcome their neighbors and help them set up their home. You can see below that the tradition has evolved. From pantry items, to laundry essentials, even some spider man toothpaste for Jacob, we were spoiled by our church family. Thanks for the warm welcome!
