Snow aftermath

Between yesterday's blizzard and the time change, our 8:30 a.m. church service at Lytham was pretty sparse--about 25 people in the pew and 20 in the choir. Our former choir director played the piano because the organist couldn't get there; our former children's choir director organized the choir and played the hymn she selected in place of the anthem; another former children's choir director directed the choir because the choir director couldn't get in; the prayer team didn't get there, so two men from the congregation stepped into that role. They invited us all to sit up front--first 3 pews, and also had the choir up there, so really we sounded pretty good. It was a good sermon, and the Holy Spirit showed up, as he has promised. Many in our congregation live in Hilliard, Worthington and Columbus, and some areas hadn't had their streets plowed yet, or if they had, their drive-ways were covered up by the street clearing.

But if you really want to see snow, visit these photos from near Ottawa. Mr. Cloud's snow problems. We have nothing to complain about.
