Ladies Christmas Party

A couple of weeks ago Martha and I were talking about some of the ladies who came to our painting class in years gone by. Though we often run into some of them, others we had not seen in awhile. We decided that we would have a Christmas party and invite them to come. We took invitations around to as many as we could find, and left invitations with those who thought they could tell another.

Last night we had 10 ladies here at our home for a time of visiting, an evangelistic devotional and good desserts. Both Martha and I had our cameras, but neither of us remembered to take pictures. All seemed to listen carefully to the devotional, and one lady, Nancy, said afterwards that she would like to talk more.

I made peach crisp, a brownie, banana and pudding cake, and apple pizza, and most of the ladies tried all three! I must say that they tasted pretty good. At the end of the evening a couple of the ladies said that they wanted to get together again next week, and make sure that they got the word out to the other ladies. This time they would organize it so that everyone was assigned to bring something, and that way it is more likely that they will not miss. So, we'll see if that happens.

Please be praying for Nancy, a young mother of a one year old boy, whose husband has just left her.

Greetings to the ladies. Maybe Donna and Bonnie and I will show up to one of those. Will be praying as they come.
