My father dropped me off at SBCC for the evening service, and from that moment until I made it home about five hours later, I was totally free of my wheelchair (which was at home, collecting dust). I stumbled around SBCC with the aid of my walker. My PT suggested that I should get more time walking on my own feet, so what better way to do so.
It took me about thirty minutes to get up the ramp and through the front door. I was greeted by Pastor Ken, who let me into the sanctuary early to find a seat. I found a good place by the column on the right, which allowed me to park the walker against the column while I settled into one of the comfy padded seats.
Pastor Gary continued his series on “Hostage”, speaking about how we need to confess our sins to God in order to overcome the hold they have on us.
After the service, I met with my Bible study group. We’ve been going through the book of Revelation, but because of scheduling conflicts, we don’t expect to finish until the middle of 2009. You see, we only meet on the first and third Saturdays, after the evening service. But the study group is made up of the same people that get asked to run classes. In fact, tonight’s meeting is the first one for 2008, and our last one was in August 2007.
We met in the kitchen, and it was myself, Mike & Carol, Judy, Steve T, Lillian Y, John M and Kiyomi. We welcomed Karen, who we hope will become a regular of this group. Judy was the facilitator and she started with a brief review before jumping in to our study of Revelation 9, verses 13 to 21, the Sixth Trumpet.
Steve gave me a ride home.
