First Things First

At last report (April 10), we were awaiting the arrival of Pastor Neilson and family.
They came, he preached, she sang, we enjoyed...the church was blessed. That was the week before Easter and there was good attendance for the services each night. It was especially good for the church to get to meet the whole family.






















In the picture at lower left, Marcia is sitting next to Abbie. Marcia is about halfway through her 6 months of chemotherapy treatments, and she is now attending the services. For the first months she stayed very close to home to avoid catching any sort of infection. In the row behind Abbie and Marcia is Pastor Neilson's wife, Esther and their children, Junior and Hadassah. The men in matching vests sang in the the choir, which presented an Easter cantata that day.
