Southern Cluster Shindig

Pack up the babies, and grab the old ladies, and everyone goes…

Hot August night and the leaves hanging down
And the grass on the ground smellin’ sweet
Move up the road to the outside of town
And the sound of that good gospel beat
Sits a ragged tent where there ain’t no trees
And that gospel group tellin’ you and me
It’s Love, Brother Love, say Brother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show

Berry Picking in the Wilderness

On Sunday, 29 July, a small group from the church gathered in the afternoon and evening at Dolly Sods Wilderness and Bear Rocks Preserve in the Monongahela National Forest to pick berries (both blue- and huckle- were ripe and waiting), to feel the presence of this wilderness so close to home, and to enjoy a picnic on the rocks overlooking the valley below and the mountains beyond.
