Dear Praying Friends,
Greeting in His matchless Name! I am back, but not completely! My broken lower leg is still in a boot which I have to wear 24/7 (yes, even to bed each night)! I am also using a walker, like an old person (which I am!). With this turn of events, I actually now feel old.
My son Dan, has taken my car keys (he thought I would cheat! ), so I am really home bound at this point. (I was lonely before this, but at least I could leave the house when needed.) Now I am stuck at home day and night. The walls are closing in. (The only living things in my home besides me are some tropical fish, and they never talk. Of course I still have my friend ZERO, my ventriloquist buddy, but he only talks when I do, so he is no help at all.)
I do have some house-keeping help two days each week through the Vets Administration, thanks to my daughter Dawn. (I served in the U.S. Navy & Army.) A woman comes in twice a week to help clean, empty trash cans, etc. The two women have been very helpful and willing to do whatever I need.
My son Dan & his wife Amy and/or their son Dylan pick me up for church services, and I am very grateful. I actually see and fellowship with living human beings and hear God’s Word taught and preached by my new pastor Dennis Higgins, Jr. at Grace Independent Baptist Church in Penndel/Langhorne, PA about 8 minutes from my home. He and his family are a blessing and set a good example. His wife and 3 daughters and one son in college are a compliment to his ministry. He is a handsome, energetic and ambitious pastor. He has led in the nearly completely remodel of the church auditorium, rest rooms, etc. The church is growing and vibrant and has a good weekly soul-winning outreach program.
My grandson Dylan just graduated from the police academy and is now officially a policeman.
He is a part of the Bristol Twp. Police force in my area. He looks handsome in uniform and was selected by his fellow students to bring the address at the graduation exercises. I was proud of him and the other young men and women last Friday afternoon. We had a graduation fellowship at Dan and Amy’s home after the service.
This past Lord’s day I was invited to my former church in Fairless Hills for a “senior saints” get-together by their pastor Chad Braley. He is a good pastor and a gentleman, and I had a good day together with many of my old friends from Faith Baptist where I pastored for 31 years. After the AM services we were all treated to a meal in a nearby restaurant, where we had another church service for dessert.
If you would, PLEASE PRAY for my healing. When I took off the boot and Ace bandage to shower the other day, I found that the area of the break (my fibula) was swollen and hurting. I hope it will heal and I will no longer need the boot or the walker. I have an appointment with the bone doctor on Nov. 1st. It can’t come soon enough to suit me. I am really getting impatient with this episode in my life. Of course I am looking to my next great event as I move to Heaven to meet my Savior (and my wife of nearly 60 years, Shirley, whom I love and miss daily).
Sincerely in the Savior,
Pastor (e) Paul C. Fedena
