Last weekend we hosted the Travis Lee Band in our home! What terrific folks: Vic, Travis and Allegra Puhse. Mighty talented too. Vic and Travis (father and son) shared with the Spring Arbor Men at the monthly breakfast (thanks for allowing Allegra - Travis' wife - and Jan to join you). After getting back to the house, they took some time to catch up on some sleep as they had driven straight through from Baton Rouge, leaving Louisian after midnight -- just did make it in time for breakfast. Then we headed to the church to get all their band paraphanalia set up -- and we certainly appreciate Rex Helms coming over to make sure we got it done right!!
Pastor Roger and Vickie joined us for dinner Saturday night -- Barron cooked some fantastic hamburgers (voted as "the best hamburgers in the world")and everyone enjoyed Jan's homemade peach cobbler straight from the oven and topped with vanilla frozen yogurt!
Sunday morning the Travis Lee Band was in charge of the worship service (they even had a little time to join us in Bible Study) -- and Travis shared a word from the Lord as to the urgency of the times!!! Spring Arbor again showed themselves to be a super congregation by hosting a covered dish dinner - yummy!!!
Barron played tour guide as we drove around the streets of Cullman seeing the Festhalle Plaza, the Catholic Church twin spires, some of the beautiful older homes, and a walking tour of the Ava Maria Grotto!! JJ and Lisa Maze called and invited the Band and us to come over for a game of volleyball which we greatly enjoyed (of course Barron and Jan were delighted to observe). Unfortunately Allegra did take a fall and received a large bump on her leg but an ice pack made it feel much better - and I think she enjoyed her time in the jacuzzi tub too!!
Monday morning Barron and the Band headed to Cullman Christian School for a time of sharing with the middle school kids. Barron reported it was a very special time. As Travis had been a school principal and Allegra a teacher before God called them to step out in fulltime Christian evangelism, it was a perfect setting for them to share and enjoy! Thanks Roger for taking all four out to lunch as well.
They headed home to Missouri that afternoon and made the trip safely. If you would like to have the Travis Lee Band come to your church, retreat, conference, etc., we will gladly put you in contact with them, or you can find them on Facebook!!
