Birmingham! Special Time with a Friend

Traveling from Moreton-in-Marsh by train, a delay and missed connection into Birmingham so my sweet friend just picked me up in Worcester-Shrub Hill. 

What joy to actually get to meet Sarah in person! God is good!

I got to meet her family: lovely husband and children, then later her parents came for BBQ. We did a nice walk to St. Peters church nearby. It’s a wonderful old church with churchyard full of flowers and old headstones. Stopped for a drink at The Bell, a very traditional British pub with a lawn bowling green, though no one was playing at the time. 

After a totally yummy BBQ with lamb kebabs and proper English sausages, Sarah and I went to the evening service at her church. That was an uplifting time of praise and worship 🙌🏻.

I slept like a babe snuggled down in a comfy bed with a light cool breeze. Thank you Lord for this amazing gift of friendships and hospitality.

Up early Monday morning, said my goodbye to family as they headed to work and school. Sarah dropped me off at the train station with a hug and a prayer.

Sometime we will meet again for a bit longer and go around together— my place or hers — Lord willing.
