Sweet Fellowship at HQ!

These past couple weeks have been productive and fun! Naturally, here are the pictures of the fun part:

The Beginning of a New Adventure

Last Wednesday, I traveled out to the Child Evangelism Fellowship International Headquarters in Warrenton, Missouri, to commence work on the 2014 CEF Calendar! It’s a new place with new faces, but I already feel like it’s the great beginning of a great project. I’ve been designing calendars for CEF for three consecutive years now, and […]

Sassafras Season

It might be winter now, but Sassafras (or Sassyfras to some) season is just around the corner! Some time in the first half of February, well before the trees start to bud and after the ground has thawed, you can dig out a few Sassafras roots (a little goes a long way) and enjoy Sassafras […]

Babysitting Sauntina!

It is such a joy to have an evening with Sauntina while Robert and Kendalyn are out on their date night. Last week Sauntina and I decided we would try making a video to capture all the fun we have. It’s not bad for a first attempt. For our sequel we plan to hire a […]

Winter Fun at HQ!

I love ice-skating! God has given such variety to enjoy! I have probably walked past the ponds here at Headquarters at least 300 times so getting a new perspective by actually being on top of a pond was a lot of fun. I stayed out with Elisabeth until almost dark and the moon was so […]

A Great Place to Celebrate Christmas!

Our family was invited to the home of the Stelzl family to celebrate the Christmas celebration of the birth of our Savior. I (Donna) especially enjoyed the hymn sing and testimony time with their small group on Sunday evening. Even though we were strangers to most of the group, we found it easy to interact […]

Sandy Hook

Christians of America, you’re the light of the world, a city on a hill! You have been given the freedom, to tell others about Jesus at will. Into how much evil must my neighbors fall, before I wake up to the call: To do and say what Jesus would, if He was here among us […]

Merry Christmas!

“Christmas at our house is the best time of year!” It is a time of bright sunlight on glistening snow, of glowing candles, of scrum-dilly-licious treats, of making special things for special people, of peaceful serenity, of excited anticipation, of family reunions and singing and caroling and remembering. For most of us, it has never […]

Continuing a Christmas Tradition . . .

. . . decorating Christmas cookies! For as long as I can remember, we’ve decorated sugar cookies (with as much detail as possible!) at Christmastime as a family. It’s loads of fun, and it never ceases to amaze me that the creativity of one year seems to always surpass the creativity of the year before!

Preparing to Celebrate!

The birth of Christ is such a joyous cause of celebration! Here at HQ we are having a great time getting ready for the Christmas Conference. I thought you might enjoy seeing some pictures of the decorating process around here and shots from a couple outstanding Christmas Concerts at Moody Church.
