WOW time has gone by so fast

WOW time has gone by so fast and life has happened.



OUR OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2012 improvements: Volunteers scarce now but the Lord provided a wonderful Pastor John working as our helper to make some extra money. We were able to complete a roof over the new stairway, put shelving in the kitchen and upstairs closet, cover exposed water pipes with heat tape for the winter, add a doorway on the upstairs railing to pass fire wood and fix the challenge with a bad installation of the shower upstairs, pay off the supply bill for the wood and tin and purchase two DVD programs.

OVERNIGHT NOVEMBER 9TH AND 10TH.
We had a donation of fire wood from a member at Christ Our Savior which came in very handy at our November 9th and 10th overnight.  We had a great speaker that gave us information to inspire us to keep our minds healthy and growing as well as how to help others by identifying warning signs of depression.  We started writing our spiritual wills in hopes to provide special information about ourselves our thoughts over our lifetime to our loved ones.  We walked down one side of the 25 acres and finished on the second day as we walked with the cows listening to the sounds around us and trying not to step into "cow poop". While taking pictures I found myself cleaning off my shoes more than once. We enjoyed roasting marshmallows over a  campfire on the ridge with a night sky filled with stars,  and vocal renditions of old childhood songs. Being silly and laughing at our memories was an unforgettable fellowship that the Lord blessed each of us with. A couple other projects and our time flew by. There was more but we ran out of time. Plans for the next overnight are in the works.

November Program for Seniors:  By attending the Loudon Senior Center Program we made connections with Love Inc and will be setting up a time to have a team of youth come out to God's Cozy Acres to help out.

November 28 stop at the Loudon Senior Center brought a connection for our next speaking engagement as well as possible help for another. The Lord sends us to each other to help, what a blessing! 

I also ask for serious prayer for the individual who broke the window of the truck this morning and stole my purse.  My heart goes out to someone so desperate and I pray they can hear the Lord speak to them someday sometime and walk away from the devil's work. My Kindle had lots of religious books for them to read and I hope the Lord is able to reach them! Their sole is more important than my material things. Jesus died on the cross for them too! This is the day the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it!
