Hello!

Remember me? Al, the pastor of the Princeton Baptist Church, in Princeton, Me, by the will of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Yes, I have been aware of the lack of updates on this blog. No promises, however, I am making an attempt to get back into this.

My excuses??

We have sold our house. It was about a 50 minute drive from our present location in Princeton. The sale meant trips to get STUFF which we had at the house, and it also meant that we had to figure out where to put this stuff here. We are still working on that, with some measure of success. I'm amazed when another load disappears into the garage, and we can still walk in and out of the garage!!

Just a few days after the closing on the house my wife left Princeton to fly to Maryland to be with our daughter, Amy, her husband and their two daughters. While she was there a third daughter appeared. Just like that!! In the meanwhile our youngest daughter and I have been left to our own resources. Well, there were a few frozen things left in the freezer for us!

We have been managing well, but it is not the same without a loving wife and mother. Yes, I am pleased that my wife was able to be with Amy and her family. We wish they were closer so we could just drop in or spend a day to help out when needed. However, at present that is not the way it is.

God willing ,we get wife and mother back tomorrow - about supper time we should get home.

I have a couple more blogs in the works. Though, so as not to bury you in reading, I'll pace my posts.

The Lord has been good to us. We are blessed and do praise His Name.

Hi,
I'm Jan and I attended the PBC when I am not ill. My husband also misses his loving, caring wife and the meals I used be able to make everyday. So he can sympathize.
We have some storage room if you need it. It is my former studio over our three story garage. It has a few things in there but there is still room. Let us know if it will help.
Jan (and Paul)
