This past weekend was as busy as it gets. I was called by Hopewell Baptist Church, in Clarksville, Texas, to come and preach to them. Working seven days a week is tough, but my boss let me off. This churches' pastor died after pastoring there for 45 years. Becky and I went up that way on Saturday night and stayed in Mt. Pleasant. I called a double header in Hughes Springs late Saturday evening. The first game was Hughes Springs 1 and Avery 0. The second game was Pittsburg 4 and New Boston 2.
Becky has been sick. She has coughed for about three weeks. When I got to the motel on Saturday night, she was running fever. However, it broke and she was able to go to Hopewell with me. These folks are really nice and seemed interested in me. However, we shall see. I preached the morning service and then we ate at the fellowship. I enjoyed some raisin pie. We left there around 1:30 and came back home. Becky wasn't able to go to church at our home church that night, but I made it.
We woke up on Monday with more rain. I hate to work on Mondays after I've preached on Sunday, but I made it. Looking forward to going to other churches one day. I pray that God will open that door for me.
