On the Road Again (Week 3)

Sunday, April 28, we sang and spoke at Rocky Creek Baptist Church.  It was a special time for many reasons.  Lee's Papa pastored that church for many years.  This is the church where both Nanny and Papa's funerals were held.  All of Lee's family attended the service that day.  Rocky Creek Baptist Church has been a huge supporter of Legacy of Faith from the beginning, and they are bringing a mission team this summer.  After the service, we had a wonderful lunch with the family and the mission team.  Then we met with the team.  They will be painting the outside of the lodge the end of July.

 

That evening, Lee preached at First Baptist Church, Lucedale, MS.  This is his home church, where he was saved, and where he was ordained.  It was a special service, as well. 

 

The beginning of the week, we were able to visit my grandparents.

 Grandma Myrtis Mizell told me some funny family stories.

On Wednesday, we headed to the beach.  We had planned our trip to Gulf Shores, AL back in February, and we were so excited!  We stayed there until Sunday morning.  It was a great trip, even though it was a bit cool, windy, and rainy.

Sunday morning early, we headed north to Grove Hill Baptist Church in Grove Hill, AL to sing and preach there.  It was a great time of reunion.  We had a wonderful lunch with many friends at JW and Hettie Reeves' home.
