This Week On the Camp Ground

Tomorrow is the beginning of our Texas District Conference and I have been very excited. Minister's and wives have already started arriving and it is so much fun getting to see everyone! Today there were several things happening in preparation for the conference, and to see it "all take shape" is nice. I really hope as many of our Texas preachers and their wives that can be here, will be! There is nothing like "coming together" and rubbing shoulders with those you love. I love the ministry and all they stand for, and more than ever, we NEED EACH OTHER to stand strong in the midst of a troubled world. I am happy to be able to say that in these "troubled times" we are seeing "great unity and great revival" in the Texas District!!!

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

This afternoon Karen Wehrle and I helped Donna Myre and Diane Green decorate for the Minister's Wives Breakfast on Friday. The Youth Tabernacle is where we will have the breakfast and it looks so cute! Please plan on being at the breakfast, ladies. You will not be disappointed...I promise! (I took pictures but you'll have to wait to see them until AFTER Friday) :)

We have been enjoying our friends who have already arrived. The Wehrle's are parked in their RV a couple of spaces over from us, and they are always a lot of fun to be with. This evening, after all the meetings we had a time of fellowship with Bro. Swan, Bro. Culberth, and Bro. Ronnie Culberth Jr., along with the Wehrle's. We didn't discuss anything "serious", we just had a good time. We could close the door tonight and say, "That was fun!"

I want everyone to know that it's not ALWAYS hot in Lufkin! LOL! Tonight we had to get blankets to sit outside. We needed a "fireplace" that we could sit around. What was funny is that it wasn't just the ladies who were cold...it was the MEN!

Wendell and Steve: They even asked for a blanket!
Ronnie Culberth: Doesn't he look all warm and cozy! LOL! Merlin Swan: He's the only one that didn't need a blanket! Ronnie Culberth, Jr: The Coffee Maker! He said he was going to make the coffee then get a book and read to all the "old men"! LOL! He didn't or he wouldn't have lived long enough to read more than a couple of lines! LOL! The RV spaces are filling up and I feel like I'm living in a "neighborhood"!!! :) It gets a little lonely through the "winter months" after all the "Spring and Summer happenings". Once all the Texas District activities are over everyone pulls their 5th wheels home, or drives their motorhome back to be parked for the long months of winter and leaves us "all alone". I'm always excited to hear tires rolling down the gravel driveway back to where we are living. Sometimes that means..."COMPANY'S COMING! :)


If the Ladies Conference and Holiday Youth Convention is any gauge on how all the meetings are going to be this year, you better come prepared to have a GREAT TIME!

I will see you all SOON!
