Simple Support

One of the most rewarding parts of my job is talking to our parishioners. I’ve learned so much about so many wonderful people. My days are filled with people stopping in for various reasons, committee meetings, bible study, attending a service, volunteering, and planning a life event like a wedding or funeral. I have the…

Time Change

Ah yes, yesterday we all felt it, the spring forward into daylight savings time. I have to admit, I’m not sure why we can’t just stay on one and not go back and forth each spring and fall. People were all a little “off” yesterday. It happens I guess when you suddenly lose an hour…

Bread of Life

I continued on my baking spree yesterday. Last week at the farmers market I picked up several zucchini in hopes of making bread. Time got away from me last weekend so late yesterday afternoon I took the time to put this together. It was a super easy recipe and everything fell together nicely with just…

Touching the Fringe

A friend of mine oversees a website for his church that shares wonderful daily scripture in small snippets. The Bible can be overwhelming to read at times, it gets easier over time and the more you read it, the more it reads you. So, though I’m trying to read the Bible cover to cover, I…

Restored

I shared several weeks ago that my husband and I were having a piece of furniture restored. It was my mother-in-law’s secretary desk. We aren’t quite sure but we believe it was actually her mother’s before that. We asked the man who restored it if he could tell how old it was. He commented that…

To God

I went outside yesterday for lunch. It was nice to take a break and enjoy the sunshine. I’m a little spoiled as sitting outside for lunch for me means sitting on our dock overlooking the water and an occasional boat that may come by. As I ate lunch yesterday I noticed how active the water…

Best Way to Start

Well, friends, last night was a little restless. Actually, it was more than a little restless. It was one of those nights when you shut the light off because you know you have to go to sleep, but your body isn’t really ready for that. I’ve learned that when this happens I should probably just…

Snapdragons

Yesterday I went to one of our local farmer’s markets. There is a particular booth there, a small farm, that is my favorite. The woman who owns it is so sweet, she just likes to “grow things”. Her veggies and herbs are always the best. I mean like you are washing the dirt and sand…

Stones, Ya Put Them Down

Last week I made a mistake, I gave some incorrect information to a guest who had come to the church for an event. He was a wonderful gentleman, and we had the best conversation, during which I found out he was 93 years old 🙂 . He had come for a meeting that morning and…

Santa Needs Prayers

Friends, this morning I’m coming to you to ask for prayers. You see one of the nicest men I’ve had the pleasure of knowing is having heart surgery today. Yes, as the title of this little blog implies, he’s Santa. Well, his name is Paul, but he’s Santa to those of us who know him.…
