Well, last Sunday was quite a morning. I was rather surprised at the number of you who trekked out through the weather to come to the Oasis gathering. If you were not there, we made an executive decision at the beginning of our gathering that we would just sing a few songs of worship together, read Scripture and share a time of communion. It was an intimate time, and we were finished by 10:45am. And it’s a good thing too, because by the time Timothy and I began to head back to Athens (around 12:00) the roads were in really bad shape. In fact, we were a little uncertain that we were going to make it home, as we came into Athens there were people in 4X4s sliding off of the road! We just prayed and kept a gentle foot on the gas pedal of my little Toyota. April, however, was stranded at Heather and Shawn’s house for most of the day. The kids did not mind, because they got to go sledding with their cousins and have hot chocolate and homemade pizza!
I hope everyone had a chance to relax and enjoy the first good snow we have had in nearly two years. This Sunday I will be picking up our study in Romans chapter 12. Please meditate on the first two verses this week, and ask God to begin speaking to you even before we gather together.
I have sent an Oasis NEWS email out earlier today with MUCH, MUCH news in it. If you do not receive those but would like to be added to our mailing list, just reply to this message below and I will add you, or you can email the Oasis inbox.
