Saturday Evening

I am writing this from my dining room, as my husband and nephew play Wii boxing in the living room, and my niece and step-nephew listen to music on my niece’s cell phone. Just another Saturday night at our place.
I talked to one of my Nashville friends for several hours today. She and [...]

Creative Worship

Tonight my good friend Rachael came by for a visit, and she brought with her some collages she had made from construction paper and magazine words and pictures.  She actually had a “collage party” last Friday, though I was not able to go.
