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.

Home Again...

Thank the Lord we had good flights back on Thursday. There was a delay leaving Orlando and then leaving Miami, but we arrived safely about 11:30pm...by the times we cleared customs and immigration we finally arrived at our hotel about 1:30am. That's ok, they were were expecting us...the room was clean the bed was soft and the air condition worked just fine! We slept in Friday morning, enjoyed the breakfast buffet...Teddy especially! :-) Darwin and Jessica picked us up about noon, and we arrived at our house here in Manta about 3:30.

Friday evening we got all the suitcases emptied and things headed in the right direction. Yesterday, we worked on getting things put away and also on preparing for the services today. Also yesterday afternoon, was the first ladies meeting especially for women 20-35. We had 10 attend and everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves.

This morning we had around 80 in the services. It was good to be back and to see everyone. Please pray for us during the next couple weeks as we get back into the work here. Also pray as Tony takes over the responsibility of a sister church in Porto Viejo, (about 40 minutes away).

God bless you as you serve Him this week!
