\nSince we met last, Jenni H emailed me the Group History for \u201cPockets of Enthusiasm,\u201d which I forwarded to Big Al, the Area 41 Archives Chair. I also found out the reason why we had problems getting into the church at the June Dist 21 Business meeting, as the church had been sold. I had been attempting to reach Pastor Banks to discuss getting a copy of the lift key and to let him know of the problems we had getting in and he got back to me and let me know the church had been sold and gave me contact information for Pastor Jessie Myles. The Church is now \u201c No Greater Love Christian Fellowship Church\u201d and I was able to reach Pastor Myles and the officers are meeting with him prior to the July Business meeting and I will be getting new keys, security password, etc.<\/p>\n
