Visiting a dear friend who lives alone and will be laid up until September with a broken leg.

You may not be able to visit Sharon but let’s shower her with words of love and encouragement on face book. Sharon L. Markle Holmes

You may not know Sharon but I’m sure there is someone in your circle of friends or family who could be uplifted today by God’s loving Hand extended to them through a phone call, card, visit, or even a few words on face book from you.

Yesterday we attended a wedding ceremony conducted in Spanish

Two weekends ago we attended a wedding ceremony conducted in Hebrew

We didn’t understand either language but the love and commitment we witnessed knew no language barrier.

Congratulations to our dear Jewish friends Mel and Lucy!

Congratulations to our dear Spanish friends Edgar and Martha!

One of My Favorite Simple Pleasures is a Chat over a Cup of Tea

How about joining me for a chat over a nice cup of afternoon tea served

in my favorite garden mansion “Rosecilff” in Newport Rhode Island?

While out strolling down Main Street in Franklin, a suburb of Nashville, with my daughter, before starting on our long drive back home to Pennsylvania, we entered the Philanthropy fashion store to be approached by a young lady, Samantha Rasband, who after a short conversation felt she should pray for me. What a blessing for the Lord to use a stranger to pray and encourage you! Thank you, Samantha, for being so obedient. The store is most unusual for as we were leaving we saw a “Prayer Wall” where customers can can write their prayer requests down and hang them on the wall!

Be ready for God to reach you somehow, somewhere through someone today!

It was a long 2 day drive to surprise our daughters, Patsy and Angela, at their 50th birthday party in Nashville Tennessee today but so worth the fun!
