Last year Christmas Eve was really hard. Keith was flying and I was alone with the kids greiveing hard for Johnathan and feeling very alone. That experience built some compassion into us and we determined to invite whoever the Lord would tell us to, so that they would not be alone at Christmas. Keith felt led to go the the Airport and visit some of the guys he has been getting to know. It was then that the Lord prompted him to invite Lawrence. Lawrence came with his lovely family and we had a truly beautiful time together. It was a little unnerving at first when he told me that these strangers were coming to dinner, but the Lord connected our hearts and it felt really good to be able to encourage and pray for them, and the kids had a great time playing together too. Now, they are not strangers, but friends.
Laurence's wife, Flora, came to our church the next day as well!
