Day 2 - Greenville SC

Dale Elwell & Daniel Rice

The Rice Family

Starting at 7:30 a.m. this Monday morning, I spent much of the day with my friend and President of "His Branches Ministries." Daniel Rice and HBM lead short term mission efforts in various countries including Jamaica, Haiti, Africa, and India. It was great catching up as friends, seeing Daniel's family, and talking about future ministry opportunities. I'll be joining him in January for a week-long evangelistic mission in Jamaica!

Dale Elwell, Chris Bates, Gavin Bates & Rosie Bates

From there, I headed to Greenville, SC to catch up with my nephew and pastor of "The Church at West Gant." It was good, this evening, to ride around to see and hear about the community in which he ministers. And it was a fun time playing games and getting to know Gavin, Rosie, and Zeke (great-nephews and niece). Thanks to Chris and Lindsey Bates for welcoming your old uncle Dale.
