The timeless values of faith, hope, and love that we cherish at Hayes Barton Baptist Church can be found here in Scotland at Overtoun House as well. Operating on faith as we carry out the various tasks we have as part of our mission, having the hope that all will get done, even though at this point the word “impossible” may creep into our thoughts, and expressing the love of Christ as we work with each other to get various tasks checked off our lists. The rooms we are working on are starting to show progress with new paint and door frames. Collecting of materials and planning for the furnishing of the rooms are in high gear as Audrey and Tonya visualize what can be.
Late in the day, Audrey sifted through a box of stencils that was found somewhere in the house, looking for just the right stencil to use in the room that is going to be called the “Iona Room.” In the bottom of the box, that “just right” stencil was found. What do you think it says? If you guessed “faith, hope, and love,” you are right! They are timeless values for Hayes Barton Baptist Church. And they are timeless values here at Overtoun House.
