(..just read this in a book and thought it was good.)

The proper function of Man (or woman)is to live,

not to exist. I shall not waste my days

in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.

Good morning ladies on another beautiful fall day.

We had a great night last night.

Sandy McElhatton came and we prayed for three quilts for her family & friends:  

1371. for Sandy’s brother Randy Rook who has stage 4 colon cancer… 

1372.for Ed Hanson who has Stage 4 lung cancer….. 

1373. for Lyle (husband of a cousin) who is suffering with Parkinson’s. 

We also later in the evening prayed and did quilts for 

1374.Sally who had a double mastectomy (friend of son Tom)… 

1375.Michelle Eimers with breast cancer…..

1377. Danelle & Brady Balogh waiting to bring their baby daughter home (2lb. 3 0z at birth but has gained to 5 – 13) 

We enjoyed having Abby Morganti and Anna Vonkeman join us.  It takes many hands and many prayers to keep our ministry going.  Each hand is so important because it takes many steps to make a quilt.  Thank you each one of you for whatever you do because it is all very special.

Our next work night will be Oct. 22nd.  We will have 2 work nights in Nov. then have Dec. off.  We will have a brunch on Sat. morning Dec. 7th unless there are too many conflicts.

Remember to each day to love one another and to Choose Joy.

Love, Joyce
