We headed back to Columbus for a family wedding, and were thrilled to have a chance to visit CCEC where Margaret had been. It was very emotional but good to see everyone there. They have named the church on their garden, model train after her! The Drake Baptist Church! She would be so proud to have a church in her name! :) And we're so proud to have her honored in this way.
The rain let up just enough for us to be outside for a short dedication ceremony. Several of the people who worked closely with Margaret were there and said wonderful things. Some of the residents also watched from inside.
In this picture, the kids looked thrilled, and Tim and I had been crying, but it's proof we were there. We needed to be there, and were glad we could make it back.
Columbus and the CCEC became like our second home, last year.
Again, it was an emotional day, but was so good to be back. It felt like a home coming and we again immediately felt the love for us. Thanks so much to everyone.
