SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY!

The UM House had a double dose of Southern hospitality this past week.  The presence of retired West Virginia Bishop William Grove always provides a sense of calm, peace and reflection for all the guests and those that wander onto our porch.  In addition Paul Womack (retired pastor of Hurlbut UM Church) came 'home' as our chaplain.  His Southern sartorial personna and inquisitive mind provided a wonderful combination with the Bishop.  Discussions were both light and intense and lasted late into the night (flaunting the early to bed mantra of Chautauqua).
