Grief

Yesterday was a hard day for me. It was also a very convicting day...a day when I took the time to look at my own life and evaluate myself as a sister, a wife, a mother, and grandmother. I looked at myself and saw so many areas where I could be better. My examination began when I attended the funeral for a woman I have grown to love and appreciate over the past 15 years during our time at Sunset. The "Morris Mob" came to Sunset when it was still Sunset School of Preaching in 1993. Very early on we made it a point to meet Elaine and Richard Walker because during our time as an Air Force family we met the Walker's oldest daughter, Sheryl, and her family in Germany. We worshiped with the Kaiserslautern Church of Christ from June 1985 to June 1988. At that time Tom and Sheryl were working with the Bitburg Church of Christ, where Tom was the preacher. Germany was a uniquely, different and wonderfully family oriented world for the Church. Church Family became "closer than a brother"  type family. Because most of the congregations were so small, sister congregations all over Germany did alot of things together for encouragement and fellowship.
