Chris and Beth

Chris and Beth Birkholz were actually in the wedding for Nathan and Ruth down in South Carolina. After the wedding, they followed us to our home here in Farmville for a good afternoon of rest. We had a cookout with some hamburgers, etc... after arriving home. I also asked Chris to preach during the Sunday morning service the next day. All four of us had some time to chew the fat so to speak after eating and Grace and I enjoyed having them in to fellowship with us for a day.

On Sunday morning, I taught the Sunday school class and Chris preached. He spoke from the Old Testament on Victory concerning the story about Joshua and Caleb and the other spies. Following the morning service we went out to eat at Pizza Hut in Farmville. It was close which made it easier for Chris and Beth since they were planning on leaving to head back to Connecticut after lunch. Suprisingly, I discovered that it is only about a 10-12 hour drive from NC to Connecticut. However, they had no air conditioning in their car, like Grace and me, so that was still a long ways I'm sure from one perspective. Thankfully the Lord gave them nice weather that day for just such a drive.
