Every month that has 5 Sundays, we have a "combined service", instead of the usual 3 church services at the 3 different chapels. Dear Audrey Joshua (85 yrs) is very deaf, and lives with her son, and can only get to church on these combined services. She really looks forward to them. On this Sunday, however, her son went to work, and completely forgot that he had to be back in time to take her to the service at 2.30pm.
At 9pm we had a knock on the door of the manse. Guess what? Audrey made her other son bring her to visit with us, and explain why she was not in church!! We visited for about an hour. The dogs and cats also made her welcome.
What a treasure to have people like her in our church.
