Beulah Land

My wife's Step-Grandmother Beulah, spent almost 50 years serving in the Church nursery. She died 3 days after her 89th birthday a few weeks back.

At 15 her Father passed away and then her Mother the following year leaving her orphaned at 16. She married my Wife's Grandfather that year who was widowed at the time due to the delivery of my my wife's Dad. Can you imagine a 16yo taking on a family of 4 at that age today? Those were different times...and she was quite a lady.

One of the hymns sung was Beulah Land. I'd never heard it that often before, but now it is one of my favorites.
