Keysville Assembly of God

Pastor Don EwartWhole In One had the privilege of sharing in ministry at Keysville Assembly of God in Lithia, Florida. Lithia is about 23 miles east of Tampa. Pastor Don and Pam Ewart serve the congregation there at Keysville Assembly. This service was particularly exciting for me as I have a fun connection with the Ewarts. Pastor Don was my fourth grade Sunday School teacher in Washington, PA. Their son, George, and I spent many summer days riding our bikes all over Washington. We had a great time of fellowship, and the Lord blessed our service there with one salvation. We concluded our morning worship service with the whole congregation praying for each other. I look forward to hearing what God is continuing to do in Lithia.

Our thanks to the Ewarts for their love and gracious hospitality.

National Fine Arts Festival ~ Orlando

August 7 -11 marked the annual National Fine Arts Festival. The festival was held in Orlando, FL. Gail and I served as...uh...judges, no...adjudicators...no...uh....evaluators. They keep changing the name on me!! Well whatever you want to call us...and I assure you, we were probably called a variety of things throughout the week. We had a blast!!

Gail judged Small Vocal Ensembles and Strings. I spent four -- yes, FOUR -- wonderful days listening to Female Vocal Solos. I will say nothing further on the matter, other than it was fun!!

Kurt and Martha, my in-laws, took the week as vacation, and joined us in Florida. Kurt judged Female Vocal Solos for two days. It was a wonderful time, and we were tremendously blessed by their help with the kids!!

Here are some pictures that highlight the week. I have too many pictures to do this justice, but I'll try to highlight the best!!
