Sunday Darleen Cuppy rode the new bus to the Methodist Church with Delia Atkinson. Also riding were Elaine Roetman, Mary Lou Cameron and Roger Cashman. Lisa Edwards played a beautiful prelude. Pastor Cheri welcomed everyone and said a prayer. We all sang “We Will Glorify the King of Kings” with the choir: Candi and Baleigh Sails, Sandy Beckman Wenzel, Gretchen Burnison, Julie Kraft, Diane Winter, Laura Kieser, Chris Schimke and Lisa Edwards on piano. The children’s message was given by Pastor Cheri, noisy offering was taken, and announcements were made - Confirmation starts, next week a movie will be shown at the Baptist church. We all said the Lord’s Prayer and the offering was taken by Paul and Jill Sheldon. The sermon by Pastor Cheri was “Awaken Your Desire for Jesus” Luke 2:21-23. We closed with the hymn “Precious Name.”
I enjoyed the pork dinner and cherry pie from the Manor kitchen.
