Kate said BREATHE I say the word, breathe, at least 7 times each day. When things get stressful or rushed…breathe. I say it to people too. In a text message when they are venting or ranting – both are welcomed to my ears. I’ve always said the only way to stay cool is VENT! Voskamp said… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday – Church
Kate said church If Covid19 taught me anything, it taught me that church is not a brick and mortar structure. It’s flesh, bone, and spirit.

Five Minute Friday – Young
Kate said young! Young! I am not that anymore. At heart, perhaps; but, definitely not physically. I will be 70 years old in October and I can hardly even believe or accept that – but there it is!

Stand six feet apart – get close. Elbow hugs. Social distancing. Airborne or not? Arrows in… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: ONE
Kate said, “One.” Entering the room singing…\o/ One door and only one and yet its sides are two I’m on the inside – on which side are you? That is an old Sonday School chorus we used to sing in the 1950’s. My grandpa was SS superintendent and led the opening before everyone went to… [Read More]
Why I Do What I Do!
Why I Do What I Do About once a year I begin evaluating “exactly what am I doing?” Do you do that? I want what I do to matter. To leave an impression. To help (even) one person. This past Sonday our pastor Tim Cox Jr. spoke on “platform.” One of the points he made,… [Read More]
