This was our second year at Bloys with Jerry as the Presbyterian Bible
Study leader, and it was another joyful week as folks from all over the country (tho primarily Texas) gathered to worship, pray, sing, eat and visit together. We began our week by flying in to El Paso to spend the night with our cousins and celebrate Wayne's birthday with a delicious Mexican dinner (Seattle does not quite have the hang of that cuisine!) Was it ever yummy! Bill & Wayne drove us to Bloys on Tuesday and stayed overnight with us, having their first Bloys experience after having heard about it for years.
This is the Presbyterian Cabin provided for the Bible Study leader. During the week our house guests included Bill & Wayne on Tuesday, Barbara Bingham (Edmond OK) who arrived on Wednesday through Sunday, and our kids from San Antonio who came for the weekend.
We shared the week with many friends - among them were Gene & Becky Needham of Midland (on the left) and Diane & Peter Wilson of Bellevue WA. We met the Wilsons last summer at Bloys just as we were preparing for the move to Sammamish - and we are so grateful for their friendship during this year in WA. We meet often for dinner and worship with them at University Church, Seattle, as often as we can.
On the cabin porch, Jo and Scott enjoy a visit with Midland friend Missy Grimes and Jerry. Missy and her family (husband and 3 children) have shared in the Uganda Mission for the last 3 years.For more magnificent photos of the Bloys experience, please click on the following link:
These are Jo's photographic memories of Bloys and really tell a great story.
