Wild West and Church

A Wednesday Hello to you from Home Haven as we revisit the Wild West in Wichita, Kansas at the Old Cowtown Museum. Walking about the grounds is always a pleasure for me because there are no automobiles to be concerned about while walking across the streets and viewing the authentic buildings or homes. As we entered the First Presbyterian Church a recording of people singing a Christian Hymn was playing. Sitting in the front pew was a mature couple singing along while holding hymnals. This particular Church would have been considered a nice one in the wild west because of the beautiful wooden pews positioned inside this fine structure that had windows, lighting, printed hymnals, a pastorial lectern, a piano AND organ. Not to mention the Minister and a pleasant Congregation ready to hear a godly message and have fellowship with like minded people. Though the west was wild, there were also fine people who desired to be civilized and cultured in their community. I have often thought about what kind of life I would have had or cultivated if I had been a patron at that time. What would I have worn? Would I have had my own Bible to carry to Church or read at Home? Would I have even known how to read? Would I have had a place to call Home and be blessed with a Husband, Children and furniture in my home? How's about dishes, a bed and a sink? Would I have had food in my pantry or extra clothing and shoes to wear? Money in the Bank or socked away elsewhere? Would we have visited with one another and shared recipes or broke bread together? How would you have lived??? Please join me as we tour the inside of this old Presbyterian Church. Enjoy our visits and appreciate your presence. Hope you have a pleasant day this exciting Wild West Wednesday!

Psalm 119:35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

Have a Blessed Life,
