Ft. Worth or Bust

Today, there are 4 of us from Ames heading toward Ft Worth and General Assembly. They are David Digby and Mary Jane Button-Harrison, our pastors, and Darla Ewalt and myself. General Assembly is the semi- annual national gathering of the Christian Church, Disciple of Christ. It doesn't actually start until Saturday evening, but MJ and Darla are taking a pre-Assembly course and I'm doing some pre-Assembly volunteer work in Ft Worth (don't know exactly what, yet). David will be doing some pre-Assembly sailing with his brother. We're pulling his small sailboat and a canoe.

I would ask for prayers from my readers for the travel.... really fervent prayers.

I ran into David's wife yesterday and she had just gotten back from a trip with the van we'll be using. It had overheated. Now we will be heading into the heat in that van, pulling a boat, so heaven know how we'll do. My sister and her husband have been here visiting, from Tyler, Texas, and are headed back today. Marv told them that if they see a big green van, pulling a boat, pulled off the road with car trouble, not to pass us by. He thought he was joking, but it could happen. Traveling with David is often an adventure.
