Just Do Your Best
I guess you could say I’m a little Type A personality, especially when it comes to some things. I’ve mentioned here before that I have an ops brain, meaning I can look at a situation and quickly see solutions. I particularly like to plan events, as most of you know. There are a lot of…

Are You In?
Yesterday, one of our parishioners, well, more than that, a friend, messaged one of my coworkers and asked, “Are you in the office today”? This friend has had some serious health issues and a few surgeries recently. We’ve all been praying for her, and yesterday she wanted to take a short drive. We welcomed her…

Who Wants To Be Like You
This morning, I had planned to share a tune in this little blog. I’m a little short on time because we’re headed out to drop our cars off for service before heading into work. When I went to find the link to the song I wanted to share, something else came up, and it stopped…

Be One
Today’s little blog, I thought that instead of an inspirational message from me, I want to encourage you to be an inspiration to others, or to someone. I know, you’re probably thinking “Oh boy”.

Lost and Found
We got a call yesterday from one of our parishioners. John had lost his phone and glasses and was fairly certain that he had left them in the pew where he had been sitting on Sunday morning. I asked my facilities manager to go on the hunt for the missing items. He searched everywhere in…

Helping Hands
Over the past few days, I’ve noticed something. I’ve noticed the helping hands of so many and the willingness to help with the littlest of things. As I mentioned in this little blog a few days ago, our annual Christmas Market was this week. It’s a big deal and attracts hundreds of people during the…

You Make a Difference
Yes, you do. We all make a difference in this world. Gosh, I guess I can end this little blog with a prayer and call it done for the day 🙂 . So, how did I get to this topic today? Well, here in SW Florida, the “season” is picking up. The part-time residents who…

The Race
One of my dearest friends passed away almost eight years ago after fighting a fierce battle with an ugly disease known as ALS. She fought that battle with grace, if that is possible with this disease. Not long after she was officially diagnosed, she asked a group of her friends to figure out a way…

Still Work To Do
My husband and I are headed back to the Midwest today. We’re going to celebrate the life of his brother Mac and say our final goodbyes at his funeral. I’ve been thinking a lot about Mac over the past few days since he passed away. He’s not in this world any longer. He was never…
