missing the dessert

Back in Grand Rapids we were members of Orchard Hill Reformed Church. For years, until the time we moved, we were part of a great small group that usually met every other Friday night. We had a great setup where each week one of the couples in the group would lead the Bible study, one would host the gathering, and one would make dessert. We’d take turns doing each, allowing for a great sampling of desserts … and leading styles, of course.
A couple weeks ago on a Friday night, I got a call from some of our friends at one of their small group meetings. At first I thought it was to see how we were doing in Virginia and to let us know they missed us. But I soon realized they simply wanted to let me know they now get more dessert with me being gone. This was confirmed by the picture I received in email a few short minutes after our call.
Incidentally, Orchard Hill is nearing the end of a long process to find a new pastor. We’re praying for you all!
