Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
~James 1:12~

My son, Ritchie will be having neck surgery Thursday morning. He started losing use of his right hand a few months ago. After having a MRI, the doctors found the problem to be in his neck. Please lift him up in your prayers also the doctors who will be performing the surgery. I know God is the Great Physician and will take care of him. Thanking you in advance for you prayers. Jan

David and I had a wonderful time at the new Dollar Tree in Ponchatoula yesterday. They had several items we needed for OCC that seem to be out of stock in stores that have been open for a while. Some of the items we purchased were 12/$1 pencil sharpeners, 8/$1 glue sticks, and 163 of the double hinged “soap” boxes which we use in a multitude of ways. Thank-you, God, for leading us to items we will use for OCC.
