Hi Dave,

A few years ago we started trying small amounts of it in cooking. Still
don't drink it tho.

We use grape juice for communion. The church we were members of when we
were first married used wine but after that we've been members of
Southern Baptist congregations. Joined a small SBC church in California
when Steve was in language school, liked what they stood for (a few
minor side disagreemenst but nothing serious) and have stayed with them
ever since.
