Sunday we went to an extension ministry about 70 miles from Lancaster.  A married couple and a group of college students travel there every Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday to work at the church.  There were about 25 people that came for the services.  Henry taught the little kids’ Sunday school, then preached in the morning and evening services.  

 For lunch we all went to a local restaurant Maria Callen…something.  Excellent; I had just a cobb salad and did manage to finish it about 30 minutes later.  The students had huge meals then ordered dessert; some had the famous pie (it was tasty looking) and an ice cream concoction in a large glass sundae glass.  These also were finished.  Amazing how much food college kids can put away.  The married couple have been there nearly two years and are praying about whether to go there permanently as pastor. 
We drove back to Lancaster and arrived about 10:30 p.m.  It was a long and tiring day, but really good to see these students work together to help the church get on its feet again.
