Blessings of Christmas

Our most special blessing this Christmas was the presence of some special guests. Thanks to our special friends at Bethany Hills Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC, Steven was able to return from BJU. We would have gone into debt to have him back, but we praise the Lord for these special folks meeting this need for us. His flight was delayed by mechanical issues and weather, but he arrived safe and sound.
Also Bill's parents, Elwood and Aletha, came on December 19 and stayed until the 27th. This was the first Christmas with them or any family member outside our immediate family since 1994! We had a wonderul time with them working, playing, carolling, etc. Their return home was a sadder event, but we cherish the memories of their visit.
Steven is still with us until January 10. He will then return to BJU for the second semester of his junior year.
