Sherry and I arrived in Raleigh, North Carolina very early this morning from Haiti. It's cold up here and growing colder! We speak tomorrow for our dear friend Anneice Loudermilk at 1:30 PM in Rocky Mount, NC. We love Anneice and her dear church people. Her husband, who was my very dear friend, died 16 years ago.
