just a weekend


I'll be somewhere close to Katie's shakes and banana splits in Grantsville, Maryland, on Sunday. There's Dorcas far left. Then my son, Joel, and his wife, Stephanie. Then my daughter Sarah and her husband Ryan. That's me in the green shirt.
Grantsville is where Dorcas hails from. It's a town in western Maryland, in lovely, pastoral, rolling mountains.
Her extended family, the Millers, plans a weekend of reunion activities.
I spent the regular Tuesday and Wednesday at Zion. Since Hunter is away in California, my work was more intense with Beth and Scott as we finalized the details of the worship service bulletin. I also had a chance to meet intern Nate and show him the conference center, and, most important, Bakers on Broad, where I treated him to a croissant.
While I'm gone for one Sunday, I'll be back on Tuesday. This is not a vacation; just a weekend.
