Around pelion

My husband, Benny, has been very ill and we have not been able to attend church services for several months. During a recent stay in the hospital, we were surprised when our friend David Golds-berry showed up with his guitar, followed by Kevin Prosser and Josh Quattlebaum, who came to the hospital room and sang for us! These guys are the Soldiers of Faith. What a delight and what great friends these guys are!
