Proclaiming God's Faithfulness

I’ve heard about it for several years and paid very little attention to it because I thought I knew how to organize. As I said in a recent post, HAVE YOU HEARD OF SWEDISH DEATH CLEANING? It tells how I discovered that I don’t really get

(Thank Brittany for sharing the recipe with me, Tiffany Goulet!) Go here for this extremely simple recipe. Make

This is the 23rd year we are setting aside a week to pray and seek the Lord about His plans for us and our family. When I look back I can see some of what that consistency has accomplished. Many things would not have happened if we had not set aside this time each year to connect with the Lord and each other. It brought
