While her actual birthdate was earlier this week, we celebrated Dorothy's 95th birthday at Menno today. It was quite a party with family and friends there from all over the country. It was nice to see the church so full. Dorothy choose the music for the service so we enjoyed some of the good old hymns. The Men's Chorus had gotten together and they sang "God is Our Refuge and Strength" for her. Another highlight was Dorothy's Great Grandson Brandon playing an organ duet with her Daughter Katharine.
Today also marked the first usage of the new kitchen and Fellowship facility. What a lovely space it has turned out to be! Diane's Catering Crew served a wonderful ham dinner.
I had taught the Older Adults Sunday School class after church this afternoon, so by the time the short program was over and cake was served, I was ready to head home. I was glad we are staying Moses Lake rather than Spokane - it's a much shorter distance to drive!
