The Weekend Dispatch

This was our last weekend before leaving for Nigeria. It was time to finish our trip to Vonore, Tennessee in order for the bus to be in the right position and to put us closer to the airport.

We had planned to spend Saturday driving between Paducah, Kentucky and Vonore, but we changed it to Friday for good reason. Odie discovered that the University of Tennessee was playing a football game against a Nashville team. That was going to create a horrible traffic situation on I-40.

We have driven in that Saturday football traffic in Tennessee before and that is not something we want to repeat. We intended to avoid 100,000 rabid football fans if we could and we did that by driving Friday during the day.

It was a long drive, but it was made much easier with less traffic. We stopped for fuel near the end and pulled into Jeff's at 4:15 Friday afternoon.




Saturday was spent working on final preparations for Nigeria and Sunday we preached for Pastor Herman Woods at Beechfork Holiness Church about an hour and twenty minutes from us. We had a wonderful service with friends followed by a super great meal and fellowship.
















Wow! What a wonderful day it was with friends. We have been preaching at Beechfork since 1987 we love these folks so much.

Thank you all for reading today.
