Church Membership

14 Nov

Well, it’s official. David and I are members of a church here in New Jersey. We joined with mixed emotions. We’re happy to have a church home, but we want to be back in our Dallas church.

Many of the other churches we visited here were not friendly. At one church, no one spoke to us, even when they handed us a bulletin. This church has made us feel quite welcome. They’re quite accommodating to people with disabilities. It’s quite impressive for a church that averages less than 100 on Sunday mornings. Most importantly, they have excellent, Biblical, expository preaching. We’re very blessed to have found this church, and we hope to be a blessing to them, as well.

Church and Home

This church has padded chairs which is a big plus for David’s back pain. The church is about five minutes from our [...]

Rough Weekend

8 Feb

David’s arthritis has been pretty bad lately. David had to leave church early two Sundays in a row in January. His back and neck hurt too much for him to sit down that long. Sunday week he had to take a pain pill before church so he’d be able to make it through the services. Yesterday he was bedridden.

Difficult Decision

11 Oct

David made the difficult decision to step down as a deacon at our church. Hopefully this will just be a short leave of absence until his arthritis is in remission.
