Church Special.........About Africa

On Nov 4th, I did the "Special Music" at my church; I didn't sing......... even though it would have been entertaining!  I briefly spoke about my trip to Africa, thanked everyone for their donations, shared some of my experiences, and showed a slideshow of pictures. I talked about how moving it was when we sang "How Great is Our God" with all the Kenyan people, and how they love the same God we do despite their poverty  homelessness, desperation, strikes, mud homes, hunger, sickness, and so much more. They are so appreciative of what they have instead of being upset at God for what they don't have. It really opened my eyes to how much I take for granted on a daily basis. I chose to use the song "How Great is Our God" to play during the slideshow. I hope you enjoy this!

Here and Gone

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. I love hooded sweatshirt weather, multi-colored leaves, Covered Bridge Festival, driving to the Amish homes to pick out pumpkins and Indian corn, antique shopping, cool evening fires, decorating with mums, and of course..... Halloween! This year it seemed like it came and went. I did find some time to enjoy it and get some pictures. Now I'm already excited for next year!
