As the widowed mother of two sons, then 6 and 10, who moved to Barbourville from Kansas, I leaned on my church to be my family, a lot. It was Delila, then secretary and in the office full time, who caught my weight, usually involving my younger son. She was so kind and loving to us both, when he was too young and I was too stressed to know that she had a job to do and we were in the way.
Jesse spent last semester with a campus ministry in Thailand doing relational evangelism. At age 7, it wasn't obvious he'd embrace the faith and a little rejection could easily have sent him the other way. Delila should take some of the credit for how he turned out and the witness he gave half a world away. |
