Celebrating Rachel's birthday

We celebrated Rachel's 22nd birthday after church:

1. Kathee made lasagna
   
2. Eliot joined us for dinner
   
3. Roger and Kathy came by for cake at 3
   

We worshiped at 4th this morning and tonight.

1. Pastor preached from Romans 5:3-5 this morning
   And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations,
   knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
   and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
   Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God
   has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit
   who was given to us.


2. And from Philippians 1:3-6 tonight
   I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
   always in every prayer of mine making request
   for you all with joy, for your fellowship
   in the gospel


3. Rachel left for Mankato directly after church
   
4. Pastor and Marie leave for Florida tomorrow for 3 weeks
