A Loaf of Bread

Yesterday I was chatting with a friend who came by the office for a meeting. I asked her if she wanted a cup of coffee, she said no and shared that she was going to a local coffee cafe after her meeting. She went on to tell me that not only did they have the…

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…

Me to Thee

It’s been one of those mornings. You know, you wake up before the alarm, and your mind is already filled with things on your to-do list. I got up early, moved through my normal routine, sat down to write this little blog, and boom got totally distracted. Before I knew it, I’d gone down at…

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…

Impromptu is Good

Last night some friends of ours asked us to come by and watch the sunset on the way home. It was an impromptu invite that grew into having a light dinner while wiggling toes in the sand. I didn’t realize it until I sat in the beach chair, and looked around at the families and…

Heavy Lifting

I’m pretty routine about going to my little gym. I’ve been a member there since not long after we moved here. Though it’s changed ownership, much of the clientele remained and our 6:00 a.m. group is pretty consistent. The type of workouts changed with the new ownership over a year ago, they really focus more…

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…

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…
