We had a good day at church. This afternoon we hosted a memorial service for Kathie Wright. Kathie and her family attended the church back in the 1980's for a while. She was friends with Betty Watson and they came together. Of course being a Navy family they traveled all over and they left the area for many years. When she came back, she never really got involved in church again. Last week she passed away and the family looked to the one place where Kathie had found a spiritual home. Today we celebrated her faith in a service at church.
I got home about 4:30 p.m. and then decided to head up to Canterbury for an open house at the new home of Kevin and Lindsey Mariano. They invited friends and family over to break in the new house. It was nice to be a part of this new chapter in the family's life.
The book of life has many chapters and the church can often be found in between the pages. From celebrating birth to remembering life, to blessing a new home or starting a new path in life, God wants to be a part of all of it. So I feel blessed to be invited to so many intimate gatherings. I am absolutely certain that God feels the same way, even more so.
