GILL MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHURCH As we travel the road of life, we come across many experiences, struggles, and challenges of all kinds. We will come to parts of the road that are straight and smooth, areas where it is rough and unleveled, pot holes, curves, up hills, down hills, forks in the road, and even dead ends. From the time we are born, we have struggles of all kinds. As we get older we also face all kinds of challenges, from schools to jobs to marriage and raising a family. It’s a never- ending road that we are traveling. Some days are good, and some are bad.
