Marie and I are happy to be back from California but we leave again tomorrow (Thursday, 4/4) for the DHF Conference in Decatur followed by the Small Church conference in Morton, IL. We will return on Thursday, April 11. Thanks to Jack Salyer for preaching last Sunday.  I have heard lots of good reports. This Sunday Bill Siebert will be preaching. I will be glad to be back in the pulpit on Palm Sunday. The choir will present a cantata on Easter.

Most of Marie’s brother’s furniture went to the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity. Butch’s former boss came by and helped us clean out the apartment. He was a tremendous help to us. I know Marie will miss her brother but she also has a sense of peace about his passing. Many thanks for all your prayers.
