Our family took a few days over the holiday weekend to explore the sights, sounds and tastes of Memphis. The key point of the trip was to immerse Dan into the heart of our family roots. Yes, I am from Kansas City, but Memphis is my adopted home and I put their BBQ right up there with KC's lip smacking tasty ribs. We had a great time and filled those few days with much walking, eating and most of all listening to the sounds of blues, and the great singing that is all around Memphis. The zoo and baseball at the Autozone Park were great fun with the family. Mary and I never go without stopping by our favorite bookstore to browse through stacks of good quality used books and found a few to purchase. Burke's Bookstore is a Memphis tradition that goes back 138 years.It is a sign of civilization, when people read for pleasure. To top things off, we worshipped at All Saints, a Presbyterian church in Midtown reaching a wide range of people and preaching the Gospel of reconciliation, so needed and so wonderfully demonstrated in their life. It was refreshing and delighted our spirits.
Coming back to Enterprise, we are looking at what God has in store for the Fall - yes a wedding, but also more ways to serve Christ and exalt his Gospel in the Wiregrass area.
