Special Visit!

It has been since June since I've seen anyone from my hometown, Lexington, North Carolina. I do miss my church family there, and wish I could visit more. This week my pastor, his wife, and their little girl was in Jacksonville, so pastor can preach at a Bible college here. My mother mentioned to me that they were going to be in town and said that they might visit if they had a chance. I knew they would be busy so I knew not to get my hopes up to high, but at the same time really hoping to see them. During my student't rest time, Mrs. Reynolds paged my classroom and told me to come out to the hallway. I was excited when I saw Claire running around the corner and Pastor and Mrs Harris following behind. It made me realize how much I really miss my friends and family in NC. It was a great to show them my classroom, my students (even though some of them were being their naughty selves), and chat with them for a little while. What a blessing to see someone from home!

  1. I am glad they got by to see you. Sometimes we pray for people that are away. I do for you often but we don't really think about how much they miss home. Hope to see you soon.
