Summer Soiree

Last night we enjoyed one of our first summer gatherings. I think I’ve mentioned these little outings before. In the summer, our church organizes one monthly dinner with a local restaurant. Parishioners volunteer to work with the restaurant with a set menu and price and to host the evening. During the “off-season,” as we call…

What Can I Do for You Today

It’s a pretty simple question really. If you work in the retail business or service industry of any type, this is a common question all day long. What can I do for you today? Another that goes hand in hand with this question is, “How may I help you today?”. As I had my morning…

The Dads No Longer Here

I have mixed emotions about Father’s Day. I love celebrating my husband and all that he is to our family. He is without a doubt the best dad, Opa, and Godfather to our family. He can have a conversation about anything, he loves to get in and play with our grandkids, well our kids too…

Checking In

We’re on day five I think, of a very large “swath” of rain that has settled over South Florida. It pretty much starts on one side of the state and moves all the way across to the other side. Usually by the afternoon drizzles have turned to buckets being dumped from the sky. Ya, let’s…

Simple & True

It’s June which usually means wedding season. I’ve seen many beautiful pictures on social media of recent ceremonies. Each is a little different from the next but all so beautiful. Last weekend at church one of our parishioners was sharing that she and her daughter were going to a bridal show that afternoon. Her daughter,…

Finding Something in Common

Over the past few weeks, I’ve met several new people. I’ve noticed that through even the initial discussions, we have something in common. We lived near each other, (relatively speaking), we have the same friends, or we share the same hobbies. It’s been interesting to see how often this happens actually, and I choose to…

Simple Saturday Words

It’s a rainy morning here in SW Florida, don’t get me wrong I’m not upset about it, we so need the rain. It’s supposed to do this for a good part of the morning and that makes me super happy. As I sat on the lanai this morning talking with Father and watching the rain…

You Never Know

One of the things that I enjoy the most about my job is helping people through the life decisions they are making. I’m here to make sure their wedding day pulls off without a hitch. When parents reach out about baptizing their children, I talk them through the logistics and get to prep all of…

Sewing the Seeds

Yesterday I headed out early to spend a few hours with a group of women I’ve come to know more closely over the past year. Now, if you’ve been reading this little blog for long you know that I’m pretty partial to my Saturday mornings. I tend to get started a little later, (that’s code…

Above All

Sometimes you find a simple song that just says it all and touches you when you need it. I like to think that is Father dropping in like He usually does when we need Him. I’ve shared before that I don’t have any musical talent, I can’t carry a tune in a bucket, and reading…
