The day of "LASTS"

Today was our last study on "Soul Shift"! We have been reading the book as a church, then meeting with small groups as we go thru the book for 8 weeks! I met with some ladies on Sunday evenings to do our Bible study together. Tonight was the last night. We met every Sunday night for 2 hours then had dinner together. What a nice time of fellowship! In those 8 weeks we have gotten closer & learned more about each other that we didn't know. In those 8 weeks we hopefully gotten closer to the Lord also! If you have not read the book yet, I encourage you to do so. It is not a big book & is easy to read! We shifted from "Me to You", Slave to Child, Seen to Unseen, Consumer to Steward, Talk to Listen, Sheep to Shepherd, & Me to We!!!! As you can see we did alot of shifting in those 8 weeks. Most importantly we got closer to knowing & serving the Lord!

Today was also the last day for our church to host the homeless families. We do this 2-3 times a year. It is specifically for women & children only. This time we had 2 moms & 6 children. Normally we sleep 1 night at the church for security as a family, but since we have Shiloh this year, we opted out and cooked a meal on Wednesday night for them instead. OK....we cheated alittle, they wanted PIZZA! So we bought them pizza & had salad with it. It was a great week for everyone. Not only were they blessed, but the volunteers who helped out all week were also blessed.

Today is also the last day my Brianna will go from passenger to driver (hopefully)! She will be taking her driving test tomorrow at 2pm! So if you remember, please say a prayer for her that she passes. And a prayer for me & Ed too :)! She hesitated for so long on learning how to drive. She kept saying she didn't want to grow up....neither do I I told her :). So, stay tuned I will post tomorrow if she passed or not. I am sure she will :)

Blessings till next time.....
