Unlimited
Why are there so many great food commercials on TV around dinner time? You don’t have to answer that! Last night one restaurant was talking about unlimited appetizers for a single price. You get something like 8 of one item. When you finish them, you can…
Change Up
Sunday afternoon we drove to the cottage with plans of spending a couple days raking leaves. Joel was able to get them off the roof of the cottage – finishing the task in the dark. However, except for me forming a few small piles, that is all…

30 Seconds or 3 Years
It never ceases to amaze me how many great encounters I have with people on a weekly basis. Each and every one is a blessing to me, yet sometimes it frustrates me that I just don’t have enough time to write about them all. This week I’ll just talk about…

Serving Him in Song: Kapelle — a choir dedicated to edifying the church service through worship in song. The Kapelle rehearses on the first, third , fourth, and fifth Sunday (when fifth Sunday occurs) at 8:15 a.m. in the music room. The Kapelle sings all…
