Boat Church

 


Most of you know that we have been loving Lake Hartwell on weekends for the last 26 years.  Our kids were young teens when we began.  We had a home church in Gwinnett County, but many Sundays were spent at the lake.  We missed being at church on Sunday mornings, so we started Boat Church.  Several families gathered to sing, pray and worship at a friend's dock.  We would usually have about 20 people, but on holiday weekends we might have as many as 50.  People came by car or boat.  When our kids started having their own kids, the logistics got more difficult to manage, and we began meeting less frequently.  This year on Memorial Day weekend and on July 4th weekend, we revived the tradition.  My good friend John and his son led music, and my son-in-law, Trey, prepared a message for us.  The music and message were inspiring, and it was so good to connect with friends that we don't get to see that often.  I hope that we can start meeting more regularly on Sundays at the lake.  I hope you have a meaningful place to worship every week.
