Beautiful Springtime Sunday.

Last Sunday some fruit trees were in full bloom

at Mendota Hills!They were absolutely beautiful!
And a little 'chicken wrangling' was done as well...

The successful captors!

Happy Monday all!!!

Happy Anniversary!

                

 Happy 24th Anniversary to Kurt & Dawn! 

May God bless you both and continue to grow your

love for each other and for Him stronger every day!

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not

boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily

angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the 

truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Object Lesson

This past Sunday Drena did an object lesson for

all us Refugees!

It was really cool!

She likened us to jars of water.

And then she dropped food coloring into them

to signify our sins.

The more wrong things we did, the more food coloring we got dropped in our jar. So instead of our water being pure and clean, it was ugly, brownish purple...

But when Jesus comes into our lives, he can take it ALL away!

But its up to us to ask him to.

What are you going to do?
