A Bittersweet Goodbye


Last night, Al and I officially said goodbye to the Bible study group that I've been leading for the past 9 years. We finished the study in early May but schedules being what they are, we had our year end social last night. The group treated Al and I to a yummy dinner at Bentley's here in Salem. It was extra special because a favorite couple from my Sunday morning group was able to join us.
One of the group members is taking over leadership so I know that it will be in good hands. As I walked away from the restaurant, I was overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude for this group of friends that have encouraged and challenged me for almost a decade. Thanks Lord!
