Mt. Solon VA- January 12, 2007

St Paul Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mt. Solon VA for the last 150 years. Two wood stoves, 10 attended last Sunday, One God- the same one for the last 150 years. You can't get to the church from the south when the river is up because the road crosses the river without the aid of a bridge. The river was up so we came in from the north.
Occasion is the funeral of a beloved member who was baptised here, brought up children who were baptised here and married here, and had their children baptised here.
First Reading was from the book of Romans 8 - "For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor power, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to seperate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
The congregation sang "Beautiful Savior", "How Great Thou Art" and "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" - AMEN.
