I think we made the right decision to cancel our services today. Even if we had hired someone to plow our parking lot, you would have needed a vehicle with 4-wheel drive to traverse Spruce Street Ext. Shawn and Katie said that eight cars ended up in the ditch on Friday night. All of them had to be pulled out.

I drove over to the building last night to reprogram the thermostat and the street had still not been plowed. Not only that, I had to wait to get through because another car had gotten stuck in the middle of the street about 200 yards from our parking lot. Thankfully some ‘Good Samaritans’ had stopped to help. One of them was in a large pick up that had a wench on the front bumper. I just sat in the road and watched them pull the stuck car out of the way.

I was in my truck and even with 4-wheel drive enabled, it was a slippery challenge to get in and out of our parking lot.

That being said, I will miss getting together this morning. I love Sundays! I love our fellowship! But I’m looking forward to relaxing with my family today. We may listen to an online message together and have a our own ‘family worship service’ in the home.

Please don’t forget that we’ve rescheduled the breakfast and special service of praise for next Sunday (Dec. 27).
