Encouragement

Shew, what a restless night’s sleep that was. We have a large event at church this weekend and the shortened week has kind of accelerated things. I woke up at one point during the night and my brain started racing, going through my to-do list. Well you all know what happens after that…your mind just…

We All Start Somewhere

Recently I’ve taken on a new hobby. I’m not going to get into all the details at this point, at least until I know more about what I’m doing. I’ve found an online group of people who have much experience with this hobby and last night I made my first post about being a “newbie”.…

Strawberries and Trust

This weekend is our second annual strawberry shortcake event at church to celebrate Pentecost, (the celebration of when the Holy Spirit descends upon the Apostles). Last year was our first in making the shortcakes by hand and serving this classic treat during our coffee hours following each service. It was a hit and we’re back…

See with Your Heart

There are times in our lives when things happen and leaning on faith is truly what will get you through. Maybe that was kind of like a “duh” statement. I pretty much share that message every day here in this little blog. When I think about the time when Jesus was alive, the people who…

In the Open

My husband and I have a practice of saying grace before we eat. It doesn’t matter if we’re grabbing something quick while driving, having holiday dinner, breakfast with friends, or just eating at the kitchen table at home, we say a little prayer. It’s just ingrained in us, it’s second nature and we just give…

This year we’ve approved grants to 16 charities, and the event Thursday wraps up the grant process and secures the final funds needed for these organizations. It’s…

From Scratch

One day last week I was making pasta for dinner. I did the usual, chopped up the onions, and green peppers, cooked them with the meat, pasta into the boiling water. Then I asked my husband to grab the spaghetti sauce from the pantry. He looked around and then came out saying, “Um I don’t see any spaghetti…

When the Soreness Set In

Like many, I’ve started the new year with a commitment to get myself back in shape. I’ve put on the pounds and it’s interesting, I can totally relate the way I feel physically to carrying that extra weight. It’s time to get back to feeling less aches and pains, fitting comfortably into clothes, and just feeling better.…

Just Ask

I can’t believe how quickly this week has been flying by. It’s been silly busy, well I’m guessing you all are thinking, “Every week is busy”, these days. It just seems like the older we get, the faster time goes. I’ll leave that topic for another little blog. My week has been busy because one…

You Got This

It’s the time of the year when things get pretty crazy with me. Well that little statement could go in about 50 different directions couldn’t it? If you’ve been coming here long to read this little blog, you know that there is a very large professional education event I plan each year at this time.…
