Saturday in Sarasota

Let me first say that night — what was left of it — ended too quickly. Going to bed at 4 a.m. and then trying to make sense for a meeting at 10:30 was interesting, to say the least! But our hosts and their guests (pastor and leaders from their church) were great! [...]

The Nunleys have some of the dearest friends and neighbors. Bright and early on Tuesday morning, several folks arrived at their home to help prepare more food than could have possibly been eaten in one day…anywhere! It was absolutely delicious.

(I’m now almost three weeks behind in posting…definitely wasn’t the plan!)
So, off we went by car from York to BWI for our flight to Fayetteville, Arkansas. This visit is one of those visits that only God could put together.

Sunday in York

(For those of you who actually know our schedule, you know that I am just a tad bit late on these posts…but just bear with me. There were so many fun moments that I can’t hurry through them!!)
Sunday was the final morning for the Global Impact Celebration. We attended the early service and [...]

Saturday in York

An early morning breakfast at the church was followed by a Nothing But Nets basketball tournament. Each team paid an entry fee which went directly to the Nothing But Nets fund to buy mosquito nets to help prevent the spread of malaria. The champions received gift certificates to a local store.
