 Joys:

Dan Daniels introduced friend visiting worship today: Jovanka Jones.

+ Lorie Courier shared joy of working with Dr. Bob Muckle to record a song a man wrote for his wife 50 years ago. They were able to play it for her, and it was a joy-filled time together, celebrating their love for one another. The song is titled "Patricia Fills My Dreams."

+Sandra Jordan expressed joy of a wonderful family reunion yesterday. And she appreciates her church family granting permission to use church tables and chairs for the special event.
