We recently took a road trip to Alabama and Georgia to visit ministry friends and three churches. We left Mississippi on a Friday afternoon heading to Alto, GA.
We always like to stop at welcome centers when traveling, especially this one in Alabama.
We made our first visit to Buc-ee's. We stopped at the one in Leeds, AL.
We arrived at Ms. Jane's house on Saturday. She is a retired IMB missionary who helped mentor us during our first term on the field. We spent the weekend with her. It was a joy to sit and talk and catch up with her in person. She is a precious lady who is loved by many.

That evening we had supper at the Duckett's house. Mrs. Brenda cooked a delicious meal! We spent the evening visiting and enjoying their fellowship.
The boys spent a lot of time playing on Ms. Jane's piano over the weekend. This is a photo of them on Sunday morning before we left for church.
I love the photo of Mr. Wendall sitting above. We miss him!
We went to church on Sunday morning with Ms. Jane. She attends Harmony Baptist in Baldwin, GA. I shared in her Sunday School class and David preached during the morning service.

She cooked a delicious Sunday lunch for us, the Ducketts, and her pastor and his wife. We ate and talked around the table about a possible volunteer team coming down from their church in 2022.

We are very thankful to have had that visit with Ms. Jane. She is very dear to our hearts. I left feeling very loved and encouraged. Having her and Mr. Wendell's influence will always be a highlight of our missionary service.
