Lawrence Chapel

This morning, Debra and I were blessed to be with the church at Lawrence Chapel. Brother and Sister Gulledge and the congregation made us feel so special and welcome, and treated us to a nice lunch in their home.

It was also a special surprise to have our District Presbyter, Dr. Freddie Harding there, along with the General Presbyter of Europe, the CIS and the Middle East, Bishop Clayton Endicott with us for worship services. Brother Harding greeted the congregation, then Bishop Endicott, and I was privileged to bring the message.

After lunch, Debra and I travelled to Cleveland for the visitation services for Bishop Leonard Kendrick who passed away this week. There was a very large crowd at the visitation services. We will be attending the funeral services tomorrow morning, then returning to the office.

I am constantly amazed by the love and kinship in our fellowship, and the amazing spiritual quality of our people. We are blessed.
