Supper Time

19 People over for supper, stay 6 hours, connect with us and each other.

Laughs all around, food for an army, connecting with each other, talking about kids, life, love, God, and making plans to meet again.

A month or so ago we had a family with three kids over that I met on the mymcmurray.com website. Brad and Katy came over again last Saturday and really connected with everyone else.

The Kavanaugh's, who we had come over last week individually, came over as well. They had a good time and really enjoyed talking with everyone else.

Nick, the former youth minister (who has been ministering with us for a few months), came over with his cousin and really did a good job of connecting with everyone.

The Frazier's, a couple that have been ministering with us for a few months, also came over and helped connect people.

All 6 of our family, and the 19 other people from 4 other families connected really well. They stayed about 6 hours and left saying things like "Wow, it is so good to have friends again, we haven't made any friends in Fort Mac until now." Cinnamon and I and the kids had connected with everyone individually, but this was the first time that everyone else got to connect with each other.

Please pray that these people will continue to form up relationships with each other as we share Christ's gift of eternal life and abundant living with them.
