Ironically, I mentioned a few days ago that I needed to begin working on our car to prep it for our travels. Well, Saturday our car decided to take a short break from driving. On Saturday Lorena rolled into a parking lot and turned the car off. When she tried to start it back up, nothing, nada, not even a click. So as a former wanna-be-mechanic I pulled out the jumper cables and got it running again, only for it to die a second time while at the bank.
This problem plus a rapid loss of oil pushed me over the edge to decide we weren’t going to take our car to visit Victory Baptist in Reading, PA. Fortunately I had asked some friends of ours, Josh and Rachel Steinmetz, if they would like to come along with us to visit this church. They had already agreed, so I called Josh up to ask if we could to take his car instead.
To make a long story short we got to Victory Baptist and had a great time getting to know some of the believers there. We especially got to know the teens since we stayed after the service to play a few games with them. Yesterday, I stopped by the mechanics (Earlington Transmission where I used to work almost nine years ago) and picked up our car. All the car needed was a new battery, and apparently my mechanic skills are not that great after all. The last time I did the oil change, I left the drain plug a little loose. So now that our car is fixed we can make it to our next church in Norristown, PA. Fortunately it’s not too far away.
