It was great to have Ted, Marietta, and daughter join us for prayer and treats.

We will meet again August 12th.

Choose Joy each day.

Every time the sun comes up, we get another chance 

to do wrong, do right, do better.   

What we do with the chances we have is up to us.

I found the letter from the Prayer Quilt Ministry and we started our ministry in August 2008……………….so may we continue on as long as possible……God still has plans for us.

Lily sorry you had a flat tire while we were having fun.

May each one of you know that you are special and each one of you is a special part of this ministry. 

God bless each one of you.  Remember each day to CHOOSE JOY!

Greatness isn’t measured by what you have 

but by what you give.

Good morning ladies.

We had a great scrambled up night…but we got much done.

We enjoyed treats made by Joanna….thanks so much. 

We are not going to meet again until July 8th.  We just need to give 9 more quilts and we will reach 1500 so on July 8th we hope to have 9 names.  We are just going to pray for these people.  We are not going to do other work……this will be sort of a celebration of reaching a new goal…bring an Hors d’oeuvre  (treat) to share.  We will enjoy our time of prayer and fellowship together. 

 These special times of working and fellowshipping together is so special. Pray for each other. 

  

CHOOSE JOY. 

Love, Joyce
