I can hardly believe it is into the middle of November, but the weather is turning cold and wet. I have had to scrape frost off the windsheld several mornings now. The Ellis Park Church of God had a wonderful reception for us last Saturday and several ministerial friends from Cedar Rapids were able to attend. We had a good time sharing with the Zion Community Church of God in Ottumwa and are very thankful for their gift. I'm trying to find a way to link our newsletters to this... maybe even our Thanksgiving/Christmas letter we hope to have out this week. We are traveling on Saturday to get my mother for a week's visit. We plan to meet my brother Paul who is bringing her about half way to Normal, IL. It will be good to have lunch with him there too.
