A Nice Surprise!

This past Saturday, we were invited to a church fellowship day with Great Commission.  Pastor Kandela asked our family and the Whitfields to come and spend the afternoon, eating, playing games and just hanging out.  What we didn't realize was that they had organized the event for us.  When we got there, we went to one of the rooms onsite and had a time of worship.  After worship, several of the members of the church, including leadership, stood up and shared testimonies of how we had been a blessing to them.  It felt kind of weird, because I feel like they have been more of a blessing to us than we could ever be a blessing to them.  After an afternoon lunch and some basketball, we headed home.  All in all, it was a very nice surprise and a very encouraging time of fellowship.
