Prayer Request

While God is obviously already at work in the situation, please remember Kay Garvin, missionary to Tanzania, in your prayers today.
Many of you may already know that Southern Baptist missionary Kay Garvin, 56, was shot in the chest by robbers Friday, February 23, near Moshi, Tanzania. Her wound was not life-threatening. Her husband, Carl, 60, [...]

Just Like You

Here is a shortened version of the video Jen made me for Christmas. The song is by Phillips, Craig and Dean.

Beware Expectant Parents

If you are expecting your first child, continue reading this post at your own risk.

Shout it from the mountaintop!! :)

I snuck away this afternoon while all 4 boys got some needed rest. It is just amazing how much I can think when I am by myself- ahhh! So on my way back home, I was just thinking about how much I love my husband. I didn’t have [...]

And yes, Elijah is the primary disruptor.   So that said, here is my post about this [...]

Wisdom Teeth…check.

Monday I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed. It has been nearly a year since I first learned of all my teeth and gum woes. In fact, I posted about my wisdom teeth way back then. In case you’re wondering, I’ve had very little pain and the experience has [...]

A story from Sunday

Last night as I watched Caleb stand on the stage in the fellowship hall singing “Just a Little Talk with Jesus” as folks lined up to get their supper plates, I was reminded of a story I wished to tell from this past Sunday.
This past Sunday, we opened the service with one of me and [...]
