Lenten Luncheons

As we entered Wesley Hall on Monday afternoon, we were greeted by pianist Pam Childers and leader Beulah Brown. The afternoon began with the singing of the “Welcome" song.
The Rev. Joe Lawson gave the devotional,  explaining all truths in the Bible. For instance, the importance of being a good listener. He told a story about preparing a meal for his family a few weeks ago.

The weather has been in the news. Record-high temperatures have been posted across the nation. Everyone was talking about it. It is only natural that people talk about the weather, because it is one of the things in life that we all have in common.

As people were entering Evergreen Outreach on Monday, SoftFire was playing Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called to Say I Love You.” Other foot-tapping melodies, such as “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” and  “Lord, I Lift Your Name on High,” also were played.
David and Patricia Pence, known as SoftFire, provided the entertainment for the day. They brought their beautiful border collies with them – Daniel, John, Rufus and Gracie.
