Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving!

“Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving, and tell of his deeds in songs of joy!” (‭‭Psalms‬ ‭107:22‬ ) This Thursday, November 28, 2019 is our American Thanksgiving celebration, a tradition that has been around since the colonies were originally settled.  Americans traditionally recognize the "first" Thanksgiving as having taken place at Plymouth colony in the autumn of 1621. The Pilgrims held a feast after their first harvest as a way of thanking God for their blessings. They also invited members of the neighboring Wampanoag tribe to join them.Time passed and the colonies merged to form a new country and these “Americans” were familiar with setting aside days of thanksgiving, prayer, and fasting in response to significant events. On October 3, 1789, President George Washington issued a proclamation naming Thursday, November…

Butterflies and Buzzards Ladies Retreat 2019

Butterflies and Buzzards Ladies Retreat 2019

Church
The story is told of a lady who radiated joy and grace even while going through great suffering and trials.  When asked how she kept such a positive attitude, she related this parable. There is a meadow where 2 creatures are flying over head.  One is a buzzard looking for dead, disgusting things to eat, and the other is a butterfly looking for beautiful flowers and sweet nectar to eat.  Each finds what it is looking for in the very same meadow. So began our Ladies Retreat for 2019 titled “Butterflies and Buzzards”, featuring lessons by Heather Hahn, who came to us from Lake Houston Church of Christ, Texas.   During these two days of retreat, Heather shared lessons on being a butterfly in hard times, with our children, in our…

Give Thanks to Our God

In fact, flourishing is an extreme understatement when the wealth of physical blessings we Americans enjoy are compared with most other people in the world.   Yet in the Biblical view, flourishing is much broader than just the physical, rather our heavenly…
