Saturday, I got a tour of the
land where they live, 2 ponds, and the house where she lived as a child. Each of the ponds have different kinds of
fish (not stocked by them, just naturally arrived by birds or whatever) They have had 2 alligators to show up at the
pond on two different occasions, and It is a beautiful gated, well cared for
(by them) place. They are both older
than I am and truly flourishing to the finish!
We went on a car tour of the
area including to the State Capitol in Jackson, Mississippi which is the largest State Capitol in the US (looks like the US Capitol) . We came back to have crab cakes for dinner
(She makes the BEST). Great fellowship!
Sunday, 7 AM
we went to their Church for 8 AM Service (there are 3 services) at Pine Lake Church ( www.PineLake.org ). Check is out. The message was
perfect for me and you can listen to it on line (Jonah). For a church in Mississippi, in the deep South, the website tells it all. I was amazed at the love of God that was very
apparent! The Pine Lake Church has a focus on (legal) adoption and foster care of
Children.
I am seeing the plan of God
working in each Church, each one has a special work to do and (prayerfully) they are obedient
to it. It is sooo important to be connected and a working part of a Bible believing, Bible teaching Church, so you can be fulfilled in the plan of God (It is much, much bigger than we are but each of us is IMPORTANT to the plan.) The Body of Christ, although sick
in some areas, is coming to realize that WE ARE ONE, when we believe, and are on
one accord.
We came back home and had
more fellowship and crab cakes. The
weather is beautiful, a bit chilly in the evenings and gorgeous during the
day. They have been having a drought so
rain would be a blessing.
We had more fellowship over popcorn around the gas fireplace in the living room. We have decided that
we are family, Sister & Brother so my "adopted" family is still
growing! Yeaaaaa!
Sounds like you are having a ball, with your new family, PRAISE GOD.
