Oh MY, Janet!    I am so glad you are ok.  God has been showing us his wonderful works all week.

I missed you!   I seen you get on line and wanted to chat but had to go pick up Troy from swimming.

He got 30 seconds in the freestyle.  Woohooo!!!
He has to beat 24.80 to go to state.  I think he can do it by the end of the season and maybe just maybe he will go to state.  

LEE  AND JANET  This what now is coming in Holland
that it very exciting but i think there are coming great problems. Yesterday it was the first time that it was coming in the news and there is in one day an other church. The church where i am going is no more.
This week i have called or i can get a chair. last sunday
1 hour church 2 days pain in my back. Yesterday i have called my pastor and she say there are also old people they will also have a chair. But they are also sitting on a bench. I have say when i must sit on a bench then i come not in the church. In the church where i am going there are problems people walk away. How is that going when there 3 churches have
a fusion.  But on 15 jan. the pastor is coming. She have no time. But in the fusion there is also the Luthern church. And a lot people don't like the Luthern church. In the place where i live our church is working together with on other church. Together on way .  But always problems. What is coming with this fusion  GREAT PROBLEMS. I say now my church is no more and that is making me sad.

BUT I SAY THEY CAN TAKE ME OF MY CHURCH BUT
NEVER My BELIEVE IN GOD AND THE LOVE OF GOD

I am very happy that i be with you on CP On CP i have found real CHristians.
I hope you can understand what i mean and what i have try to say
I love you all  but now i am crying but i say it are tears
to Heaven.
LOTS OF LOVE FOR YOU ALL  (((((HUGS))))))  RIA

Zachery is just about done getting his haircut, so I am going to go pick him up and take him out for a special birthday lunch.

Yes Dear JANET I WAS MISSING YOU

But here the last days a lot people not on CP



HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZACHERY
HAVE A NICE DAY.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ZACHERY!!!  Big Birthday hugs to you!  Have a great time with Mom at your special dinner!

Hi everyone on a very chilly and rainy day here in Georgia.  In a little while we will be going to our Sunday School Christmas party.  It is a potluck and we all contributed to the cost of the meat for the dinner.  We are having it at the Church.  This is nice as it will be quieter.  Last night we had a wonderful time at the choir Christmas Party.  There were about 40 people there and the hosts have a lovely and large home.  We had good food and fellowship.

This morning Pat and I wrapped all of the packages for under the tree and I got the gifts sent off for our grandchildren and great grandchild.  I think we are pretty well set for Christmas.

Zachery, happy birthday wishes to you.  

Jeanne and Janet, those near miss stories are really something.  I don't envy you all having to deal with ice and snow on the roads.  

It is good to hear that Mieka will be back in the USA for a couple of weeks.  It doesn't sounds like she is working in very good conditions.  It must be tough going from California to a very cold place.

Ria, it sounds like there will be some interesting days ahead for your church situation.  We can't even agree within our own congregation so can't image trying to merge with other churches, although know that is happening in the USA as well. Do hope you will be able to get a chair on which to sit for the Sunday service in your church.  

Nice to see the pretty Christmas graphics being posted.

Pat, a very interesting devotional this morning.  

It is good to see so many posting today.  See you all tomorrow.

Just a quick note to say I'm here.    We'll be leaving in a few minutes for a cookie-swap Christmas party at our neighbor's - and I did make some cookies.  I only cheated a little, using Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie mix and putting it into the cookie press.  The only decorating I did on them was to sprinkle a little colored sugar on while they were still hot from the oven.  

We went to the Senior Center for a special Christmas luncheon at noon and had a lovely meal - more like a dinner than lunch.  Delicious, but we had to leave when they started bringing out the dessert - it was apple crisp and the cinnamon got to Gene instantly.  Other than that, it was a really nice time.

Janet, your accident sounds even more frightening than Gene's.  I don't think he even had time to form a prayer before he was in the snowbank.  But praise the Lord you, Beth and Gene all were enclosed in His protection.

Thank You, Father, for Your wonderful protection over Gene, Janet, and Beth!
The "fusion" of those churches signals the work of Satan indeed.  The way it's usually done is for some of the leaders to say, "Oh there really aren't that many differences - we can compromise on them easily."  They end up compromising on extremely important doctrine.  They end up as unbelievers.  The ones who were not consulted and had no say are forced to either accept it or leave.  They no longer have a church.  It's sad, very sad.  However, Satan isn't very good at it.  He makes terrible mistakes, ruffles many feathers, and ends up with not so much as he planned.  Besides - Christ still has, and always will have, His Church.  In the end, He will come to claim her, and she will be pure unto eternity!
He has never yet lost even one battle!

Things are progressing toward our move on the 18th.  We went to the new place today and made arrangements with the woman who is still there to have Marbeth come in on the 18th in the AM, even while the movers are there, to clean bathrooms, kitchen, etc.  Then, praise God, our crew from the church will by that time have the truck full, and we can go and put things in there places.  I look for our Lord to bless us!

12.30 a.m. Sunday.

Jeannie I do hope you enjoy the party.
I have just had a little party of my own.  I found a lovely Web-site fom my dear village of memories (i.e. Pat.the goat and the churchyard)...Keelby, Lincolnshire.

Gosh what a surprise, I know places change but from the amount of businesses set up there now it is almost beyond recognition.  I did however write to the owner of the site and express my joy at finding Keelby again. There were also some photos of the old Keelby as I remember it., I was distressed to learn that the old Primitive Chapel had been demolished.  I went to some services there with my young friends years ago....ah well, "time waits for no man."

I went out this afternoon on the scooter but didn't overstay.  It was an icy afternoon...freezing. Brrr! I had a Wedding gift to deliver to the vicar.  He was married a week ago. Unfortunately no-one was there but I was so glad to see my dear friend Sidney come round the corner in his car.  We talked for awhile and he expressed his fears. I reassured him that I pray for him...I came home with tears after he told me that he had missed me...Aaah! I love this man, he's a real gentleman of the "old school".  He's 91 now and feeling frail.  Please pray for him if you can spare him a few moments.

Well I am finally off to bed.  I was up early today, as Pat knows.

Good night,
God bless,
Happy Lord's Day.
Jenny.

Amen to Als prayer Lord.  Please bless this move for him and Marbeth and all whose lives touch theirs.  In Jesus' Name..

Hey guys, thought I'd join  . I had a swim meet today I got the best time that I had ever got before on the 50 freestyle 30 seconds !! I got disqualified on the 100 I.M. which is fly, back, breast, free in that order, when I started off the diving blocks I dove in but when I came back up I accidently started freestyle and was like oops and started to do fly the rest of the way.  

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the Birthday wishes.  

Well, good job T-bone!  

I just got a haircut today. I got a mullet.    My mom and I went shopping.  We went to the bagel shop and had a bagel sandwich.  We went to the dollar store and got some candles to stick on my cake that I didn't make today.  I got a game to go with my xbox.  We had great time.

WELCOME TO CP

[size=+2]I just wanted to say Hi and welcome to CP [/size]

Thanks for the devotional and all the interesting posts.
Not in a talkative mood, so simply stopping to say Hi!

Welcome to The Foos Bro's......that sounds like the name of a band!

God Bless.

Welcome aboard, T-Bone and Mullet.  Glad to have you guys around!

Hello to everyone else, as well.  Karma has gone to bed and I'm going to have to follow before long.  

I hope everyone has a great day at church tomorrow.  It's possibly going to be icy here, and Karma is still feeling pretty rough, so I'm not sure if we'll be out in the morning or not.  

Ria, we love you, sis.  Hang in there.  

Thank you for the beautiful notes of welcome.

How is everyone doing, I have been doing good.

that is great that mom(sonifo) does not have an
anurism. PRAISE the LORD!

I will be praying for everyone to have a nice
week.

Hi Everyone......Pat has left for home.    She went west from Rexdale and I went east.    Praying for her to arrive safely.    She has to get back to her doggie Geordie and CP.    

We had a lovely evening with a lady playing the harp.  The lady who was supposed to sing had a bad throat so we all pulled together and came up with some talent.    Pat played the piano and I sang   "That beautiful Name"    Here are the words to the chorus.  

That beautiful Name, that beautiful Name
From sin has power to free us
That beautiful Name, that Wonderful Name
That Matchless Name is Jesus

God Bless


Love Ruthie

HAHAHAHA!  Hi Ruthie!

I see that I forgot to logout when I was using your computer.  That's so funny to see me posting a message and I wasn't the typist!

Yes, you sang lovely tonight, Ruthie!  It was so nice.  The whole evening was really great!

Hi Pat...  I finally got on under my own name...
Seeing I made a few mistakes in the post that was supposed to be mine but was posted under your name, I think you had better edit that post and correct the mistakes so you don't look like you are making mistakes.   WHEW!!!      HAHAHAHA.

Anyway, I enjoyed the evening.  


Love Ruthie

That's good news, Sarah!  Wow!  You're some team player!

Hi Pat!  Good to have you back with us.  I sure missed you today.  

We didn't get the cake made today. We were gone most the day, so we plan to cook it tomorrow.  mmm...I can't wait.

Troy and Zachery finally decided to join us here on CP.  I am sure they will enjoy the devotions and learn some from all of you.  

I am headed to bed.  Talk with you all later.
Soni

Sonja, that's good news!  I'm looking forward to getting to know Troy and Zach a lot better.

I haven't read all of today's posts yet but I will.

I'm ready for bed and Ruthie is too!  Now, I'm locking the door for tonight.
