It has been wonderful to see so many return to in person church. Our church is very small, ony about 50 on roll. During covid we nmbered about 12-15 who were faithfully attending once things began to open . Finally in the last week we are seeing our numbers almost back to normal, especially during our Wednesday night prayer meeting!
We actually had 15 present, this was 9 more than the usual 6. We bless one another in our presence!
I have been a bit out of commision around the house lately with severe allergies and and concerns with my deep dry cough that I see the enterologist about soon... but hubs has been such a trouper!! He has vaccuumed the whole house, cleaned the bathrooms thoroughly, and jsut been awesome. He blesses me everyday!
Each week the rose garden just keeps giving.. I must go out and get some clioping for the hose today because the rain, (Praise God ) is coming!
I have been rather consumed with a new initiative, God has placed in my heart. I am beginning a new prayer meeting at our church this Monday morning. I had been doing a book study on Derek Prince's amazing book,
Because the state of the nation and the world has changed so dramatically, .... the call for the church to arise has been resounding and churches everywhere need to be opposing the work of the enemy that is seeking to rob, steal, and destroy our child, families, the church and our nation!
We have been invited once again up to Gerri and David's for our Annual Memorial Day cook out. This will be the 7th one we have had and it is a huge blessing for us all. G and D live up on a mountian and they have the most gorgeous inside / outdoor room that is so pleasant in the summer.. I am thinking about making a baked bean dish from scratch, using dry beans and my own sauce.. I found a great recipe that I am thinking to use.. If I do I'll share about it next week!
I've read reviews that that book is a GOOD one. I need to get that! Our nation is on the mend in my opinion but yes...us Christ followers need to rise up and speak TRUTH with LOVE and COMPASSION something our wonderful nation is sorely lacking!!
ReplyDeleteThanking God for you that you have a hubby willing to clean while you recover from your health issues. Have a blessed weekend!!
I will look up that book and find out more about it.
ReplyDeleteHurray for hubbies who help around the house with all the chores (mine does, too). I do hope you will be feeling well soon and there's nothing serious in that cough.
Enjoy your time up on the mountain!
Our church is small, too, and though we had Zoom access, it's good to be able to be there in person. It's good to have a husband who helps around the house. Hope your allergies and cough are alleviated soon. Your roses are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get some relief from your cough soon. Your garden looks lovely. Hope you're enjoying the long weekend.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous garden! How nice of your hubby to lend a hand when that cough and allergies were acting up. Hopefully you can get something alleviate that cough. That book sounds very interesting.
