May Days

For someone who loves words and has so many, I haven't written lately. It's been a pretty busy month.
  • Something I've been dreaming and praying about for some years manifested itself. The first meeting of Women's Ministry Connect - "In Good Company" happened right here in my home. Area Women's Ministry Coordinators came together for breakfast, prayer, encouragement and strategic ministry planning. What a joy!
  • Scott and I celebrated 18 years of marriage. We thank God for this gift and for maintaining our love for so long. Many, many more to come we pray!
  • We travelled without the kids to Lancaster, PA to redeem a Christmas gift. We watched Daniel and Abraham and Sarah at the Sights and Sounds theater. It was wonderful! Highly recommended. Go when you can!
  • Drew was inducted into the National Honor Society at Faith Heritage School. Proud mama and daddy! He got his permit the same day and now we have a full-time chauffer.
  • We've grieved along w/the Steven Curtis Chapman family who lost their daughter last week. It's a journey of emotion even from here. Don't you love the body of Christ?
  • I finished my new favorite book (that I bought for my boys) "Do Hard Things - A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations". Uh-huh. You can tell from the title, can't you? It's a must read. Written by teens for teens by Alex and Brett Harris. Get a copy!
Enjoying a low-activity week focusing on abiding with Christ. He is near and good. And I love Him so.
