[nagdu] Churches

[Larry D. Keeler]

I never thaught this was a probblem!  We went to a curch at Pilot and when I 
came home, I took Holly to church.  We have also been to many catholic 
conferences.  I am a member of the Knights of Columbus as well and have met 
our Bishop.  I get teased about whether Holly is Catholic or that shes the 
only girl who gets to go to the Knights meetings but otherwise, I've never 
had any issues.
