Welcome to Our Family!

  • Angels Among Us

    Angels Among Us There were two popular television shows with themes surrounding angels: “Highway to Heaven”, starring Michael Landon and Victor French from 1984 to 1989, and “Touched By An Angel”, starring Roma Downey, Della Reese, and John Dye from 1994 to 2003. Stories were told about how angels walked among humans and assisted them…

  • New Year, New Plans

    New Year, New Plans The holidays were amazing! We celebrated the birthday of our Lord and then, a week later, the beginning of a new year. For many of us, 2024 was a difficult and challenging year: family and friends continued to deal with sicknesses, financial loss, losing their jobs, and the brokenness of grief…

  • Giving at Christmas

    Giving at Christmas This time of the year we especially remember God’s Best Gift when He sent us His Son to live among us. “For God so loved the world that He gave His One and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 (NIV) These days, there are numerous ways…

  • Thank You

Even as a Baby Boomer, I remember our family enjoying instant mashed potatoes during our evening meal. ATMs and fast-food drive-in…

  • A Cup of Water

    A Cup of Water “For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in My name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.” Mark 9:41 (KJV) Water. Cool and satisfying. It quenches our thirst like no other beverage. As children of God, we want…

  • Eggceptional Peace

    Eggceptional Peace Yes, as my online spellcheck is telling me, the correct spelling is Exceptional Peace. I purposely spelled it “egg” because of inspired thoughts from the Holy Spirit while I was peeling hard-boiled eggs for my daughter’s breakfast. Normally, I like to purchase already boiled and peeled eggs from the grocery store. This is…

  • People Helping People

    People Helping People Earlier this month, some of our volunteers were able to help serve dinner at “Streets of Hope,” a local men’s shelter. (In front-Ed, second row left to right-Reverend Kevin, Pat, Kevin’s mom, back row Richard, Jimmie and myself). For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which…
