> 	Wow!  What a morning we had at church.  Let's see, where to 
> begin.  Okay, first, of all, it would be helpful for you  to know 
> that we have been meeting in our fellowship hall, or room, or 
> whatever you want to call it, during the winter months to help cut 
> down on the fuel bill.  This means that, instead of staugy  old pews, 
> we have chairs that can be moved around.  I should know, the kids and 
> I set them up on Saturday.  We don't leave them out because the place 
> is used for other ministry during the week.  Anyway, there we were 
> having a good old time, like you should have when you go to church.
> 	Greg has been doing a sermon series on evangelism.  Today's topic 
> was based on Acts 2:42-47 in which the behavior of the early church 
> was described.  He was talking about how we need to love each other 
> and care for one another to show the world what the true church 
> should be.  Well, right there, in the middle of the sermon, an 
> elderly lady collapsed.  The phone was hanging on the wall  right 
> near  where Greg was standing, so he just picked up the phone and 
> called 9 1 1. while other people moved the chairs and those who had 
> medical knowledge began to attend to her while the rest of us stood 
> around praying.  We had visitors today too.  They told Greg 
> afterwards that they really liked the service.  Hmmm, if they come 
> back, I hope they won't be expecting a repeat.
> 	The ambulance came and took her to the hospital.  Greg has already 
> talked to some family members who told him that she is doing 
> better.  I guess  that she has heart and kidney problems and she took 
> a pretty strong pain med. this morning before church.  If she had 
> stayed home today, she would have been alone and may not have been 
> found for hours.  At one point, she said, "Oh, I shouldn't have 
> come."  Everybody was saying, "No!  It's a good thing you're 
> here!  You're being cared for immediately both physically and spiritually."
> 	Just another day in the life of a pastor here in Maine!
