What a wonderful surprise to see one of our deacons and his entire family show up Saturday evening around 6:00 PM. They will be able to stay a week. Max and Carol are so thrilled to have their daughter and grandchildren around them . . . and glad to have Michael here too. : )
How everyone kept this a secret is beyond my ability to comprehend. It has been like “family reunion day” here at the Pools headquarters. This is a day I will long remember.
The Fairchilds also brought down a Gospel tract that Delynn wrote (and Jan Duffett prepared) sharing Max’s testimony. It is entitled: Sudden Changes - - Without Warning. The thrust is NOW IS THE TIME, TODAY IS THE DAY of salvation. It has Max’s smiling face on the cover with an ambulance and him in his hospital bed days after he was hit by the stroke that paralyzed him.
I know God is going to use this tract and use Max as he passes it around to folks he sees every day.
We are going to work on a LARGE PRINT edition for him to take to the hospital with him. He is such an encouragement to others in therapy who have also had a stroke.
What a day. It will be so thrilling to be in God’s house with these dear friends and fellow-labourers Sunday. My thanks to all who kept the secret and helped in making this trip for the Fairchilds possible. This Family of God . . . this Household of Faith . . . is surely a blessed gift from God.
