Continued in the serenity & hospitality of Dale & Helen through Monday morning of this week. Received a visit from a Pastor Kopan (sp?) & some of his family. This brother, now in his eighties, is of Ukrainian origin, was drafted into the Second World War, where he received Christ and was baptized to the accompaniment of Russian tank fire. His stories of God's work brought history alive.
Took daily walks including a memorable one through the woods with my agile brother Dale, up & down hills, across streams & over little wooden bridges. On Sunday had fellowship with the E. Cambridge group. Thank you God for what you are doing in their midst. Had an opportunity to share a little on kingdom building, one heart at a time, and the authority that God has delegated to us as believers.
Monday drove up from CT., Had dinner with a brother Bill, saw another brother Bud, and ended up at a third brother's (Russ) place for the night. Bill cooked a fine meal. Thanks, bro. Hope to see him again later in the week.
Especially busy today. Saw Gary this morning. He has a gift of drawing things out of people. God is also honing his apologetic skills. Met his friend Tout (sp?) whom I hope to see again. Then off to see M. T. in S. Boston. Looked at the vision of kingdom building & also discussed impressions of the group in Memphis where he grew up that I visited in March. Finally had dinner with Jose & Ashley. Impressed with their growth in Christ and their desire to help others.
