11/02/14: Reunion

Charlotte, despite being exhausted from the travels, didn’t sleep much at all. But Della said that she thought she was well enough to go to church and see everyone. We managed to get there at 9:30 and we went to our old young and marrieds class. The class was packed and everyone was surprised to see us. I said a sentence or two and then Alan taught the class continuing their series on doctrines. We hugged lots of people and shook lots of hands on the way to the main assembly. Then I asked if I could have an opportunity to say a couple of words and they said I could do the Lord’s Supper. For the bread, I talked about the body and how much it has meant to me to have to depend on it and how generous and supporting everyone has been. Then for the wine, I talked a little about the birth of Charlotte. Then for offering, I talked about how there is so much more that we have received from here and there then just money. Rodney then gave the sermon. Afterword we visited with as many as possible and then went to lunch at Newks with a lot of our friends. Della and I were exhausted by the time we got home. After resting for a bit, Bradley picked me up to go over to Jamie’s house to watch The Walking Dead. It felt just like old times. We are overwhelmed to be back and are so happy to see everyone again. Della has felt pretty rough today but we are hopeful that the doctor visits will go well tomorrow.
