The weather has played havoc with our little church this year. It was so cold on Sunday (the 20th) that our elders decided to cancel church…and the potluck that was scheduled. We have many elderly people in the congregation, and it didn’t seem right to get them out in the extreme cold. And we know that if there was church, they would be there.
So this meant that Jim and I went to our neighborhood church which is just 3 blocks from our home. Our daughter and her family have been attending this church for some time now, and she even sings in the choir. They have been intending to transfer their membership to this church, but just haven’t found a time when the whole family was in church at the time of invitation. So during the invitation hymn, Robin looked at Chris and said, “Shall we do it today?” He said, “Yes,” and up they went. Naturally I got all choked up, and I couldn’t find a Kleenex. I felt so honored to happen to be present on the day they made this commitment. It’s another example of serendipity.
