Relay for Life

We supported today's Relay for Life at the fairgrounds with two luminaries. The first, is in memory of Charles' dad who died of cancer in 1991. The second, is in honor of the Glenville UMC who have welcomed us into their community.

A big project

Charles tackled a big project today, volunteering to remove a large pile of branches at the Itasca Rock Garden (part of the History Center of Freeborn County). Five hours and six pickup loads later and the job was done!

A Fair Day

Charles accompanied some of the residents from Thorne Crest to the Freeborn County Fair today and had a nice time escorting one of the men around the fairgrounds.

 

A treat from Glenville

 

This morning during worship, the congregation celebrated the first month of our being together. One of the members, Roy, presented us with a handmade cross with our names on it!

A Friday task

Charles spent a few hours this morning, volunteering to paint some of the curbs that had not been painted in a good many years.

Another civic activity

Charles attended his first meeting of American Legion Post 56 tonight after being signed up by a member of the Glenville UMC.
