What????

This is a sign we saw on our cruise and I still don't know what it means. Any ideas???

Thought I'd Seen It All!

I have to share this with you. Having been in ministry over 30 years, you would think we've seen it all, but alas.....
This morning during the Lord's Supper, an elderly man who had been sleeping, placed a twenty dollar bill into the communion plate with the bread as he thought he was putting his giving into the offering plate. The funny thing about that is the usher who was passing the plate is nearly blind and didn't see the money on top of the bread! I removed the cash and put it into the usher's hand and he quickly pocketed it not knowing what it was and probably thinking I was giving him a gift. Can you picture this scenarion? I am still laughing.

Christmas Joy

Well, here we are at our tree! We just finished our Christmas program and went out for a Chinese Dinner so I don't have to cook. John and family will be here Tuesday evening and we are expecting snow again.

Wishing you all a very Blessed Christmas and New Year.

Christmas Blessings

For unto us a Child is born! Unto us a Child is given.

God sent His Son! May your heart overflow with gratitude as you reflect on God's perfect Gift and may His peace fill your heart at this very special season.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

This morning the temperature was -2 and it was COLD. We cancelled church services tonight and there will be more snow this weekend. Is this really Colorado or are we still in Minnesota? Is it warmer anyplace else? Let me know and maybe I'll visit you very soon.

12/12 Can you believe it was -12 this morning? I really think someone left the door open in Alaska or is it Minnesota? It is so cold, your snot freezes! Really!

Let It Snow

This is what we woke up to this morning and it is the worst snowstorm we have had in almost 10 years. Yes, it has been that long! I hate it!!!! It is pretty though but not the shoveling part just ask Dennis!

Opa Quips

Opa is always coming up with new conversation quips and here are just two from Sunday.

Opa's silverware kept falling out of his hands while he was eating. Finally, he said "Your silverware is too heavy!" We just got a new set and they are a bit heavier but not that heavy!!

While we were being served communion, Opa started coughing after he drank the little cup (you know how small they are) so I asked him if he was alright and he said, "it went down the wrong pipe!" He was fine.
