Community...Again..

The chalkboard in the front hall of my old farmhouse looks like this

right now, a silent testament to the fact that community has

happened alot at our house lately.

I love having people at my house.

Sure it get gets messy sometimes

and requires alot of prep work usually,

but it really blesses me to provide 

a place for people to fellowship

and be warm, happy and comfortable.

And when they leave,

and I see their doodles on my chalkboard

likely spurred on by the one before them

who tried their hand at writing,

I smile...

and I thank God for the opportunity

to have blessed and been blessed.

I have had many opportunities in the

past  4 weeks to open my home

to guests. I'm glad for the help I 

was given in preparing, and in serving,

and I carry many memories

on my heart of laughter, tears,

conversation, and the joy

of seeing people enjoying 

themselves while gathering

together in my home.

Thought the pictures could give 

you a little taste of what has

been happening at 

my house lately.

And why I've been quiet on 

this blog!

Please do come see us! We will be happy to

have you in our home!
