The Gift
Yesterday my husband and I had lunch in the home of friends who are refugees from Nepal. Odell has helped them in numerous ways as they have navigated the complexities of banking, finding jobs, learning to drive, and getting drivers’ licenses in America. Their most recent request was for a Christmas tree. So Odell found [...]
The Gratitude List
With Thanksgiving just three days away, I’ve been pondering what to write in this blog. I am thankful for so many things, but I wanted to do more than list the good things that God has given me. Then I thought of Paul’s words to the Christians in Thessalonica who were experiencing persecution: “give thanks [...]

The Faith of a Child
It’s been a hard week as we’ve watched a very dear couple welcome a baby into their family only to lose her five days later.
