Re: The adventures in Daphna Dale.....

What a treat to come home evenings and being able to hold a new born! It seems we have another "daddy girl" which is just fine by me!
She is now three weeks old.

Re: Hymn Share

But you are in VA now - that group does not have the singing table, I don't think. You are right about the Va church, though I haven't been there in over 20 years. I grew up in these churches and my dad still sits at the singing table at their home church. We have changed church affiliations in the...

Re: Hymn Share

The Groffdale and Weaverland conferences in Pa and other states have a song leaders table. I believe it is always the same people at the song leaders table, but I would guess that if there was room, and someone wanted to join, they could without special invitation. We have two song leaders appointe...

Re: Job openings, work needed

After we moved last summer, I got the feeling more change is on the way. Well, we didn't have enough work for this winter, so I ended up going a few states away for 2 two week stretches for fill in work. I'm back now and there's plenty of work, but I'm still kind of in the market for something highe...

Re: The adventures in Daphna Dale.....

And I have a temporary job to help get us through the winter. It does mean I'll have to leave the family for approx two weeks at a time. Currently that looks like I can get 2 two week work stretches in with a week break in between before it's baby time at our house again.

Re: The adventures in Daphna Dale.....

Please pray that the right opportunity would open up for us, I've put applications in several places. I do have one interview scheduled for a week from now, but we were hoping for somethi...

Re: Today ...

Lord, you saw the medical staff’s feared conclusion, As seven year old sleepy eyed sister looked at teary eyed mother in confusion, You know Lord as his life hesitated a direction, His life lay on the alter as we cried for your protection, So, I awoke today with lonely bed, The song, “This is the d...

Re: Discouragement

Just as this topic was posted, we had a Sunday School lesson were John the Baptist got so discouraged in prison that he sent his disciples to Jesus to ask, are you the Christ, or do we look for another?

Just thought I'd share this.
