What Did Your Pastor Do This Week?
I had a wonderful week spending time with some precious brothers and sisters in the Lord. Started off with a nice dinner with a couple whom I cherish. The dinner prepared before me was absolutely satisfying, but what was more delightful was news concerning the Gospel in a certain country in Southeast Asia that my friend related to me. He was there teaching on the book of Acts. How thrilling! The next day, I had steak with old friends and reflected on God's goodness in the past years. We had an exciting conversations touching on computers to Genesis.

This was a very full week and there is yet more to come. Looking forward to seeing my good friends make their vows before the Lord as they are brought together as one flesh. What a great picture of the Gospel!
