UNEXPECTED STOP & VEHICLE ISSUES - Central Baptist Church - Lanett, Alabama

Our original plan was to head to Villa Rica, Georgia this past Sunday to be at Happy Valley Baptist Church.  I was scheduled to preach in the evening service there.  However - the Lord had other plans.  We still made it to Happy Valley and that update will be coming up tomorrow.

I will give you the short version of what happened.  Our van developed a transmission leak a week ago today.  Bro. Evans' cousin is a master mechanic who owns his own business but he could not look at the van until after the weekend on Monday.  Bro. Evans was willing to drive us to Villa Rica and we are so thankful for that.  We ended up going with them to their sending church for the Sunday morning service.  After we arrived, Pastor Jeff Thorn asked me if I would preach the morning service.  I was grateful for the invitation and we had a good service.

Pastor Thorn shared our van situation with the church and they took up an offering to help out.  By and by, the transmission problem ended up being a bad rear seal and was a relatively easy and inexpensive fix.  The offering was more than enough to cover the cost of the repair.  We are thankful to the the gracious folks at Central Baptist Church!
