Barn Hop #35

Hello, friends! I just pulled into town from a lovely weekend at the beach with a group of women from my congregation. We spent two nights and three days eating great food, fellowshipping, and spending lots of time praying and sharing. No speaker... just an opportunity to focus on sharing what God is doing in our lives, praying for each other, and considering what God WANTS to do in our own lives and the women's ministry at our church in the next few months. A few words come to mind...

• refreshing

• powerful

• exciting

• anticipation

This was a wonderful way for me to finish off one of the busiest months I've had in a long time. The November calendar has a lot more blank spaces on it and I'm very thankful. I want to spend some time seeking further what God wants me to do in terms of ministry. And it's exciting to see what He's doing in the lives of others as well!

I left the "mostly sunny" beach and came home to patches of snow on the ground. Brrrr! Since the forcast is a chilly 19 degrees tonight, I may not have a carrot or parsnip crop tomorrow since the high winds blew off the agribon and I didn't have time to replace it before I left on the trip. {Sigh...} Choices. We have to make them and live with the consequences. And sometimes, the weather just doesn't cooperate. However, I'm banking on it hitting only about down to 28. It's not even close right now and unless another front is going to blow in, I think I'll squeeze by this one!

  7. There are so many great recipes here, both for eating and remedies, cleaners, etc. Wouldn't it be great if we could make a Barn Hop cookbook on line and whoever wants to purchase one could order it either in print or CD form? I wonder if any organization offers that and what the cost would be.
