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.

April 8

Well, I seem to be getting farther and farther behind in keeping this blog updated. Sorry about that. Things are going well here. We haven't had any snow! :-) Most days are bright blue skies and sunshine. The last couple days have been a little overcast, but that hasn't seemed to lower the temperature very much.

Our church services the last couple weeks have been very good. We have had good attendances and visitors both Sundays. Melanie was able to lead to ladies to the Lord last Tuesday evening, when they met together to start discipleship classes! What a blessing.

The construction has gone well so far. We have the first floor columns and floor poured. Next we need to raise some more money, so that we can pour the 2nd floor, (which will be the roof of the first floor), so that we can finish up the first floor. Please be praying with us that the Lord would provide. Our current Landlord wants us out of the apartment we are meeting in this June, so we need to get this first floor finished to provide a meeting place for the church.

Teddy is doing great in school. He is starting to enjoy reading. This week we are on "Easter Vacation", and we are enjoying the time off. Today we started making our chocolate peanut butter eggs. They are mixed up and in the fridge. Teddy is excited about tomorrows part, as that is when we can dip them in chocolate and decorate them.

Friday evening we are having a "video night" at the church. Pray for this outreach.

I pray that you are having a wonderful week!
Joy
