My Heart is in Mexico

This week my heart is in Mexico.  My husband and daughter are there on a mission trip.  This is her first trip to MITC.  Check out the website for the Mexican Indian Training Center.

Please pray for these faithful saints as they go about working for the Kingdom.

Fairest Fourteen

I know a fair maiden with long golden hair.

Sounds like the start of an old Irish ballad, doesn't it?  But, this fair maiden is my sweet daughter whose birthday we celebrated just a, ....ahem, a few weeks ago.  Time is slipping past me very quickly and two more fair ladies have celebrated birthdays in the meantime.  

Twelve and Terrific!

As I told you in my last post, we celebrated an important birthday in our house near the end of June. The smallest and last that I birthed has been a most delightful joy to all of us.  

His birth came just a bit early due to some complications that I'd never experienced before, but all was well, and since he was the smallest in birth weight, he was dubbed "peanut" by me. 

But, not for long.  

When Irish Eyes are Smiling

Happy St. Patrick's Day

  Ireland is a magical place in the minds of those whose heritage reaches back in time to the Emerald Isle. 

My roots go back to Northern Ireland ~ Ulster. 

Pray for Haiti

I've been watching the news, along with many of you,and have seen the destruction from the earthquake in Haiti.  There is such devastation. Such anguish. Such misery.

 Immediately, I thought of my brother-in-law and his family who, with their church, have gone to Haiti many times to minister to the people there. They have at least one mission there....and they have friends there. 

I was thankful when he called this evening to say that he had heard from his friends and they are okay....the mission is okay......in one of the areas.  There are other areas that they have not heard from yet.

Tonight there are thousands of people who are not accounted for....whose families and friends are waiting to hear if they are safe....Some of them are Americans......Some are native Haitians.....Some vacationers.....

Some met the Lord ......some met Eternity without Him......

It will be many days before help can get to these people. Some will die waiting.

Please join with me and pray for the people of Haiti. Pray that the Lord will be with those who are suffering and those who are waiting. Pray for the people who are bringing help to those who are helpless....for their safety and strength.

Pray for the orphan.

Pray for the widow.

Pray,  knowing that above all else, God is El Elyon. The Most High God who rules and reigns over heaven and earth. He is in control.

He knows.

He sees.

He hears the cries of the afflicted.

He is there............If you want to be His hands and feet, prayerfully consider giving here.
