Just a few pics of the trip

This was Bolton Abbey. We went here on our second day in England, it was cold, wet and rainy and I LOVED it!! It just made for a truly authentic English experience.

New friends

Have you ever had just an instant connection with a group of people?? You walk in and you realize that you're home, that you belong.

That's how I felt while in Wigan these past 2 weeks. I've never met such a wonderfully welcoming group of people..... they were and are just tremendously loving and kind. And talk about funny, I've not laughed so much in ages.... it was a GREAT workout. In fact, I lost 4 pounds while over there....all of it I attribute to a certain Webster.

It's a true testament to the power of Christ's love and how it connects us. No matter where you go, as long as you are in the presence of Christians, you are home.
