May 17. Busy this morning getting the box of Sunday school lessons ready to be mailed to JAARS for shipment to PNG. Looked for some clothing items to fill up the extra space so every space has something useable. Put in some socks that Daddy wanted to get rid of, a crocheted baby outfit, crocheted preemie hat, and crocheted scarf. Also wrote a thank you note to Doug & Jean. Most of the rest of the morning was spent in the kitchen making sweet potato soup and then making pizza. Daddy left around 11:15 or so to go to Gaffney and pick up milk for C&C, and didn’t get home until after 1:15. I was working on notes for the missionary training program; but the brain was slowing down, and I was ready for a nap as soon as Daddy got his lunch. This afternoon, I whipped up some of the sweet potato soup, and "J" came over and picked it up to take to Doug and Jean. Then I whipped up some for myself before doing dishes. Pastor Ogle concluded his teaching on Exodous 19 this evening. There was just a small group there tonight. When we came home, there was a mess of dirt and pollen all over the front steps and porch. (One of our neighbors had kindly mowed our law for us) While I was sweeping that off, “V” walked by and asked for more tract booklets. I had to go get the key to get them out of the car so she said she would stop and get them on the way back. She had to go down the road to deliver something. Would like to give her a Bible too if she will accept it. (She never did come back, but still praying and watching for the opportunity to see her again.) “15But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.” I Peter 1:15,16 May 18. Not quite as hot today, but humid. Fixed fish for breakfast to go with my rice. As soon as I was ready, Daddy and I went out shopping. When we were almost to Ingles, I realized that I hadn’t brought the shopping list. Too late to go back. We remembered everything that was on the list, however, except for the laundry detergent; but it was cheaper at WalMart anyway. After Ingles, we stopped back at the house to get the shopping list and drop off the few items we had bought at Ingles. We had done Aldi shopping in Hickory on Tuesday, but made a quick stop there to get one of the double rockers which was on sale. Then headed to WalMart for the rest of the shopping. By the time we finished there, my legs were done for the day. This humid weather isn’t very nice to them. Arrived home around 11:30. Put food away and Daddy went off to Subway to get his lunch. I whipped up some soup for my lunch; and after eating that, got ready for nap. Daddy came in just as I was about to lie down. This afternoon I got a small packet of information ready to go to John Gray, things he had asked us to send for obtaining our visas. Worked on notes for the missionary training school and then on lessons for a children’s Bible club (We are praying that we might have one in our neighborhood this summer). Daddy went out this afternoon to mail the package of Sunday school lessons to Waxhaw to be shipped to PNG, and Christy & Connie went out to a store nearby so Connie could inquire about consigning some crocheted items. Then they went to Sandy’s Christmas to get a few things. Found out it wouldn’t really pay for her to consign them there. “4To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious…. 6Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. 7Unto you therefore which believe he is precious….” I Peter 2:4-7 How precious is Jesus, my Savior to me! and to all who believe!
