Sunday, 7/20/25, went to church, taught Sunday School, Went to Freddy’s church in Tawas, church visit to Denny Hartman’s church, Lumberman’s monument, pizza at Tawas Bay Pizza, Hopevale Worship in the park

Ron and Barb made it to the church visit at Harbor Church.  She had knee surgery recently and today she was able to ride her “Spider” motorcycle

The church service was amazing!  I got there 15 minutes after it started.

Our nephew Freddy, me and Bill right before the bike blessing started.  We are so happy he is going to such a great church that follows Jesus and what His Word says!  This is the 3rd nephew on Bill’s side to be born again!  the Bible says you must be born again to see the kingdom of God.  So thankful for what God is doing!

Bill left a few minutes before me and went to meet CMA friends to ride up to Tawas for a church visit!  I left after to go to our 9 am church service. Worship was awesome!  I taught Sunday School. It was a great lesson on how David worshipped God with all his heart! We made sticks with streamers and then put music on and worshiped the Lord.  I had my K-1 class plus the brought in the second graders.  What a great group of kids who were great listeners and participants.  

I left for Tawas right as soon as I was finished.  I got to Harbor Church, the church we were doing the church visit at 25 minutes late, but didn’t miss much. Still got to worship lots before the message. The worship was awesome!

When the pastor had us greet people around us, our nephew, Freddy came and gave us a hug 

And talked to us. Then his brother, Joey, who just moved back to Michigan from Washington state, came and hugged us. He gave me the biggest hug which I returned. We were all so happy to see each other.  He gave me another hug before I sat down.  This made my day!  The message was awesome and it was scripture preached from the Word of God.  All the glory was given to God! Prayers were powerfully.  God’s presence was there!  I’m so thankful my nephew and his family are in such a great church! Joey had to leave to get home right away, so we didn’t see him again. Freddy hung out with us and  Bill spoke about CMA and then there was prayer and a bike blessing. Denny said afterwards lots came up to him who want to start a CMA group in Tawas.  Yay!  I left my car in the parking lot and rode with Bill and we all ride

 To Lumberman’s Monument.  The weather was beautiful and fast   we had such a great time.  We all went for pizza at Tawas Bay Pizza.  Bill and I ordered fast because we wanted to get me back to my car so Bill could get back to ride home with the group.  They forgot and put cheese on his no cheese pizza. They gave it to us free and said they were making another pizza.  Well it took forever.  We had over 30 people and everyone finished eating before his pizza came out.  He just took it to go and we left to go to my car. We put the pizza

 in my car along with my pizzas and Bill headed back to the group.  They were just lining up to leave when I went by.  I got home about 20 minutes before him.  I warmed 3 pieces of pizza up for him.  Melissa called and they had been in Tawas at the beach and now were heading to Hopevale’s night of worship. I met them there! Worship was awesome and it was a beautiful night to sit outside.  What an amazing and fun day! God is great!
