Tea at Haydee's

We just got home from having "tea" at Haydee's (pronounced "eye' day"). Actually, we had 7-Up to drink since she thought it too hot for tea. Argentines don't drink iced tea so it would have been hot tea. Haydee is a member at our church, a widow, with one son and one grandson. She was a gracious hostess and talked about her life. She is 76, didn't get married until she was 33 and was married in a Methodist church despite her Catholic up-bringing. That caused her mother a lot of grief because she said that she had disowned her religion. Haydee has grown in the Lord over the years. She plays the keyboard at church and has been a member there for more than ten years. Haydee lives in a small apartment on the first floor of a two floor building. All the apartments open out onto a hall. Since it is hot today, most of the doors were open. We had prayer with her before we left as is customary. We prayed for her son, his wife and child as well since the daughter-in-law is a new Christian. We prayed that they would find a church near their home to be able to worship with other.
