We've had a very busy first few days in Ohio! My sister flew home from Chicago, where she teaches 5th grade, for the weekend, and Dad, Matt, Lisa, Lily and I spent Saturday hiking, eating at a favorite Amish restaurant, and playing putt-putt golf, a White family tradition!
Sunday morning we worshipped with our Livingston UMC family and had a chance to share with the combined Sunday School classes and again in the main service. This was the church I was raised in, and it is ALWAYS a huge blessing for us to get to worship and speak there. Reminders of their love and prayers were such an encouragement for us.
After a quick lunch, we headed for London, Ohio, where we met up with new friends from Faith Assembly Worship Center. Almost 2 dozen people from this congregation have been to Haiti with OMS in the past 5 years for various ministry opportunities, and it was great to meet many of them during a church picnic. We were then able to share the ministry of Emmaus Biblical Seminary with them, and were blessed by their love for the Haitian people! They prayerfully took on partnering with one of our first year students!
What a great day to worship, share, and spend time with our Family here in Ohio and to share our brothers and sisters in Haiti with them!
