CPFUMC DEDICATION

Today the Bishop and District Superintendent came to Cross Plains to dedicate our church and parsonage rebuilt after they were burned December 27, 2005. We had almost a church full of former pastors, former members along with the building designer and contractor. The Bishop was the pastor at the University United Methodist in San Antonio where my daughter, her husband and Valerie went to church. He said he remembered their faces when we left. He is a great preacher. And the DS is equally impressive in the ritual. We had the bbq meal. We were at the front of the line and Susan Hunter ask me to give the blessing so that we could start eating, which I did.

After we ate we bought copies of the brochure describing the stained glass windows and then made a tour of all of the windows. After we visited with Sue Neal for Kathy to give her copies of the photos she took at Taylor's graduation. Sue was going to visit her daughter, Diana, Taylor's mother to get her hair done. We came home. Val and Vanessa left. We took naps before Kathy and Keith left. This morning Keith did me a great favor by changing the top AC filter that is located over the top of the stairs. I give him a hard time about that because he designed the house. He claims it isn't his fault that the filter is located there. But he was good enough to change it for me. He always helps with chores when he comes.
