"Light a candle!"





"Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person."

By this, I don't mean we should tip-toe around the truth, (or, as is said in MN... "sanding off of the truth"). But I do proclaim with scripture's support.... "watch what you say"!

O.K. that last part was my paraphrase... but I believe it holds true to the author's intent!

Exciting Opportunity -- Worthy Cause! -- Cristo Vive International

I am posting below, a poster for an event that I will be participating in early May 2006.
Cristo Vive International is a Christ-centered organization that reaches out to children with both physical, and cognitive disabilties. Their work is both here in the USA and abroad. This year they will have camps in Osceola WI., and in Ecuador, South America & Ireland, U.K.

Jessica has participated in their camping progam the last three summers, and will again go to Cristo Vive camp this year in June.

We cannot speak more highly, or with more respect and admiration for this organization.

Their efforts are truly making a difference for these individuals and their families.

Please consider this organization's needs.

With Love & Christ's encouragement,

Duane & Sandra Jones

May we present..."The New Wolff Baby Wheels!"

Well, we're not exactly Vana White & what's his name....
But we present to you (Meggan & Bryan and ?????) the new baby's wheels!

With Love,
Dad & Mom Jones + Jessica

P.S. We'll bring it with when we visit.

Truly, a sermon worth hearing!

Meggan & Bryan, in a recent post on their blog, provided a link to a sermon they heard at their church in CA. (Grace Community Church).

Dr. Steve Lawson delivered this message to their church while in CA. last month.

The link I am posting below is from Dr. Lawson's church website. He originally preached this message on January 1st, 2006 at his church in Mobile, AL.

You can find it by looking for the Hebrews sermon on 1/1/2006.

The download of the sermon's streaming audio takes a bit of time, but is well worth the wait!

Please consider taking the time to hear this. It is delivered by a pastor who seems to have done his homework well, has a passion for the Word, and how it relates to each of us.

Blessings,

Dad J

P.S. "Springtime is nearing" just recieved another 5-7 inches of snow!

Did someone say "Springtime is Nearing!"????

On Sunday there was virtually no snow.
We awoke today to heavy snow falling. You'll see by the photos!

Springtime is nearing!

During the night, we awoke to great flashes of lightning. There was not much in the way of thunder however, and neither did we receive much of any rain.
It was however, a dramatic display & quite unique for this time of year.


No the image is not mine...merely a visual representation to accompany the post.

Blessings from MN,
