Welcome

I would love to invite you into my home to have a cup of tea with me. We could sit in my sunny kitchen and talk about all the things that are going on in our lives. I could share with you the news I hear from my grown daughters. How my grandkids are growing. We could laugh together over the funny things that they have said. It would be fun to share the ins and outs of our family life, and talk about our latest creative projects. We could share what God has been teaching us, in our personal lives, and encourage each other on this walk of faith. We could pray together, laugh together, and even cry together. Since most of us will never be able to sit down together face to face, I would like to invite you to join me here. So come on in and have a cup of tea with me.

About Me

Crossville, Tennessee, United States
I am a 61 year old, wife, married to my best friend for 40 years. We have been blessed with 6 children, & 13 grandchildren. I love mentoring women in their spritual walk & in the everyday. I have a diverse background, having spent over 30 years living and ministering in a small South American country. Now my family resides in a small town in the lovely state of Tennessee. We have experienced the blessing of adoption, but also the hard of dealing with a child with RAD and other mental health issues. You can live life with the cup half full or half empty the choice is yours. I choose half full.

I pray that each of you had a wonderful Easter! We enjoyed the week before Easter visiting with our middle daughter, Ashley. Teddy was thrilled to have one of his big sisters around to "play" with him!

The week of course just flew by! Isn't that always the way it is? You anticipate and plan and look forward to something for so long, and then before you know it the time has come and gone. We packed a lot into the time though and had a wonderful visit!

The news we are hearing from Ecuador is very good. We had 11 teens go to youth camp and 2 accepted Christ as their saviour while there. One girl surrendered her life to be a missionary and all of them came back excited and pumped up to serve the Lord! What a blessing!

Tony preached Sunday evening at the Gospel Baptist Tabernacle in Crossville. We are thankful for the opportunity that he had to share about the work in Ecuador there.

Today we have headed up to Michigan, where we will be at our home church, Great Lakes Baptist Temple, in Flint, tomorrow evening, and then in 2 other churches on Sunday and a different church the following Wednesday. Please be praying for safety as we travel and that the Lord would soften hearts to the need in Ecuador for this new building.

God bless you as you follow him this week!
