Georgia

Drove to the Atlanta area on Thursday to my friends Ed & Linda's home. They took me to Stone Mt. the next day- good exercise & supposedly the largest single block of stone in the world. While there received a call from my friend Jake, who is doing well & on his way to Bulgaria for an athletic missions trip. Used a log splitter for the first time, doing poplar & oak.
Taking my usual walks, one along a flood plain with Ed. Lots of brick homes here, some with colonial style pillars in front. Even some mailboxes are encased in brick- no baseball bat whacking here.
Gathered with the local saints Sunday morning. Lots of participation, which is problematic in some other groups. Stayed overnight with Steve & Sandra & enjoyed Indian food & fellowship with them. Traveled to Steve's business on Monday & got the tour. Even managed to lock both sets of keys in the car for the first time in about 30 years. Special thanks to another brother Stephen for rescuing me from that dilemma.
Lunch today at a Mexican place with Steve & Ed. Among other topics we discussed the idea of sending out small teams of people to plant new house churches. Also talked about mentoring younger saints. Even touched on the historical reason for the Cinco de Mayo holiday coming up soon.
