"Home" again!


We're just back from five nights away in Paihia. The Sunday service with the Lex Pistols was a blast, with a good congregation including a number of visitors who came along for the music. We were so grateful to host the group and enjoy their passion for the music. It was a privilege to integrate so many great pieces into the liturgy.
And, of course, it was wonderful to re-visit our friends in the congregation and spend some time in one of the units that we have been so closely involved with for the last three or so years. We helped out with a few odd jobs and stayed on to attend the local meeting of Probus where we had a fascinating - if somewhat puzzling - introduction to the Scenic Hotels venture on Tongatapu. And in the evening we joined the Probus Club's first "dining group". Jimmy's Rib Shack was crowded to the doors for the two-for-one ribs deal...
We collected some bits and pieces from the workshop at our home at Tui Grove where Gary seems very comfortable. A smooth trip home rounded off a very pleasant break.
