    Brenda, thanks ever so much for sharing the article about Our precious Jesus “donning an apron” we had our retreat last weekend and I had picked a mini session about aprons – headed in a whole different direction, but I found that article I had printed a while back and I ran with it!!! It was a big hit! That article and Jesus’ humbleness to serve His disciples brought new meaning to the Last Supper for me and others! Sorry I didn’t know about your blog before – BUT I do now. Thanks for serving Him by sharing!!!!

  11. I always love meeting my “family” on here. Those who love Jesus. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I appreciate it. Sounds like your retreat was a good one. :) LOVE those retreats!!
