Saturday: Three Days Before We Move...




It is the Saturday before our last Sunday here in Sidney, and we have been busy from sun up to sundown!
 
We got an early start on the packing this morning before our first visitors arrived. The youth pastor and his wife from the Evangelical Free Church here in Sidney came by to pick up some furniture we were passing along to them. They are a nice young couple, and we were happy to be able to help them get established in their new home in town.

During the loading of the furniture, Dan Rowan, our church lay leader, stopped by to pick up some items promised to his family.

Then we launched back into packing, taking a breath around lunchtime. Doug Armbruster (a member of our church) came by with his magic power drill and helped Charles disassemble and bring upstairs the ten panels of Charles' button collection. Whew! What a job that was!
Just as we were finishing that task, we were visited by church members Courtney, Kristina and Emily. More items found a new home with them!
 
Then - We went to the church where Charles officiated at the renewal of wedding vows for Pam & Dennis Byerly who have been married for thirty years!
After a quick bite for supper, it was back to the packing and sorting that needs to be done. Whoa! Come back tomorrow, and see what happens next! Praise be to God who gives us the strength to do what must be done!!!
