Grandpa is a busy man!

As Seniors pastor at our church, Pop/Dad/Grandpa has to do outreach ministry. Well, he started with a couple of assisted living facilites. He enjoyed it so much he now does 7 different facilities - 3 nursing homes and 4 assisted living. I go with him to 3 of them. The one we do on Sunday nights at a new assisted living facility is really going well. The place is beautiful - looks like a luxury hotel. The first night we were there a man came up to Pop after service with tears in his eyes and said, "I have not been able to go to church in a long time and this means so much to me." Last night I overheard a couple of ladies talking. One said, "I feel like I have been to church." The other responded, "yeah, he's good." I also do a piano concert twice a month at an assisted living facility. So - I guess we are chekcing out the facilities in the area to find our future home some day. (Actually, I guess God will allow us to have good health and stay in our home to the end.)
