Cromer

Dave and I did wonder if we would get to Cromer for their Anniversary, but we made it and were welcomed by Sue and John, our hosts, who had once been members at a church where Dave served, as well as by many other helpful folk.

A warming meal, a comfy night, and a service of celebration, during which we were treated to the gifts of both the congregation and the minister who sang for us. And then - in the middle of Advent - a nearly Christmas meal of roast turkey before we made our way home through the frozen wastes.

It was good to share the combination of memories and hopes for the future, and to hear again God's challenge to be willing to change and grow in God's service. Thank you, Cromer.
