The Bonfire Gathering

Okay, why is it that anytime I pull out my camera at a gathering, people automatically assume the pictures are going on my blog? ;) So, not wanting to disappoint anyone, here are pictures from our church fellowship at Dan and Kathy's this evening. Their home is situated by a pond in a wooded area...a perfect place for an autumn bonfire and hymn sing. After the sun set, we enjoyed chili and fixings, desserts, and hot cider. It was good to sing some newer hymns along with some standards, rich in biblical truths about Christ and what He did for us on the cross.

From "Before the Throne of God Above" (by Vicki Cook & Charitie Bancroft): "When Satan tempts me to despair, and tells me of the guilt within, upward I look and see Him there, Who made an end to all my sin. Because the sinless Savior died, my sinful soul is counted free; For God, the Just, is satisfied to look on Him and pardon me." Amen
