Today is the Global Day of Prayer. From midnight to midnight, countries and peoples across the globe will be lifting their voices in prayer for healing, for restoration, for blessing to come.

The Power of Prayer
The “last-week-of-school” parade has begun. Yesterday it was “last pizza day” and last day of Art (for Trey). My piano students are finishing up their semester. And today, it was the end of my first year with Moms In Touch. I have been longing for a MIT group at our school since Trey started kindergarten. … Continue reading The Power of Prayer
Life’s a Picnic!
Well, at least it is once a year when you’re part of the Worship & Arts ministry at McKinney Fellowship! We attended the second annual W&A family picnic at Springhill Retreat Center in Richardson. We think it’s no small coincidence that they started having these affairs shortly after WE joined the church, but that’s a… Continue reading Life’s a Picnic!
Introducing…
This was sent to me awhile back, but I kind of shelved it for one of “those” days. Today is that day. I love this video. It gives me goosebumps. Just try to watch it without jumping to your feet and cheering! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvCd_ANIKys[/youtube] That’s MY Jesus!

Overwhelmed!
Today I embark on a new journey – my first ever women’s retreat with McKinney Fellowship! I have heard from our life group that these retreats are not-to-be-missed. They are amazing. You laugh, you cry, you create memories and legends that live long after the retreat is over. I am really looking forward to this,… Continue reading Overwhelmed!
You can do it. He can help.
With great thanks to my Bible study leader for sending me this! Feel free to comment and add your own. This could be lots of fun! A fifth grade teacher in a Christian school asked her class to look at TV commercials and see if they could use them in some way to communicate ideas… Continue reading You can do it. He can help.
Threads of Gratitude: A no-brainer edition
Hmmm…lemme see…what am I grateful for this week? Oh, you mean BESIDES the fact that my husband no longer has CANCER? That one’s hard to top, for sure. I have cried a lot of happy tears this week, humbled and awed by God’s mercy in choosing to heal Matt’s body. But there is so much… Continue reading Threads of Gratitude: A no-brainer edition
