Sorry that I missed last week, but I was THANKFUL for the photo above. My dear friend Jessica and her husband Randy came down for the company Christmas party on Saturday. So Nadia, Jessica and I got to spend Thursday and Friday running around having a great time and eating delicious food. We set a record and saw each other 3 times this year. WOO HOO!!!
- For Randy and Jessica’s visit and the fun party that the company put on.
- For all the KIDS HOPE USA volunteers at our church that help me make this such and awesome program. I would be useless without them and I am grateful for their time and energy put into these at-risk children.
- For Tarrant Net and all their work to reach out to people in our area. It’s a coalition of churches and community groups that are really reaching out to the people around us.
- For Darwin mentioning Nadia in his sermon this week – even though it brought me to tears (in a good way). Listen to the podcast here: http://www.fortworthpca.org . It’s the December 2nd sermon and you can download it on the right hand side of the home page.
- For the World Vision “Step into Africa- AIDS exhibit” that was hosted here at the Potters House last week. We went on opening day and thought it was a compelling view of the AIDS pandemic facing our world. It does a great job of making it real by viewing the pandemic through the eyes of children. To see if it’s coming to a church in your area go here: http://www.worldvisionexperience.org/ Click on tour dates to find out where it will travel to next.
- For Nadia’s sweet smile. It melts our hearts each day to see that this wonderful child is in our family. We are continually grateful to God for His wonderful gift He has entrusted to us.
