Oh the Joys

• May. 3, 2008 - Missions Conference

I'm having a proud Mom moment!  Our church is having a Missions Conference this weekend and last night was the 1st night.  All the church kids marched in with flags and sang "Jesus loves the little children", then they placed their flags in the holder behind them.  They did so good!  Then the Marine color guard marched in, very impressive and patriotic.  A young man from our church played the "Star Spangled Banner" on his electric guitar, very cool, while we stood with hands over our hearts in respect to the American flag!  We honored America 1st, because this is where Foreign Missions start, right here at home, and then goes out to the world.  Our Missionary was from Scotland, United Kingdom.  Joshua was the 1st one to march in and he got to carry in the Irish flag!  The theme for the conference was His Grace, Our Hope.  Statistics were read as a young man played "Amazing Grace" on his sax.  Then 4 different people sang "Amazing Grace" in  a different language.  Very cool!  Go to the link below to view pictures.

I love Mission Conferences. It allows us to see through the eyes of our missionaries. But what particularly caught my attention was the children. How wonderful to involve them. Touching post. Sis Hopper

Mindy, You have every right to have a "proud mom" moment. Joshua and Madeleine were so cute. Josh was so serious. It was just precious!

About Me

This is where I come to journal about the joys of walking with Jesus, being a wife, and a homeschooling Mom. Even in the midst of the chaos (oh yes, there's chaos), I'm able to count it all joy!
