Summer Recap Part 5

It'd be easy to become engulfed in the sadness of the world;  of broken hearts and  angry people who act wrongly and of questions and hurt multiplied.  We do cry out often to God "why do the wicked prosper" for it is not wrong to wonder and question and to long for a world without the brokenness.  But the beauty and goodness is there if you dig for it. It's all around, gifted to us by a loving God who cares for the small things and the big things, from a maker who designed us for truth and beauty and goodness.  The joy is there because it is from the light-maker. And it is in Himself that we can find peace and hope.

 

Summer Recap Part 4

We spent time with dear friends from near and far. We volunteered at the Goschenhoppen Folk Festival, we played lots of music and were part of a play retelling the Prodigal Son!  We also sadly had to say goodbye to our beloved cat Harriet Jane (2009-2026). We are thankful for her life and her quiet love all of these years.  Harriet was our most shy kitty but she became brave in her elder years and we loved that time we had with her. 

 

Summer Recap Part 3

We had an Anne of Green Gables party! We found a new part of Green Lane Park (the boat launch!). We hatched chicks (3). We made jam and spent time with a new buddy. We took a few trips to the "sea" as Levi calls the ocean. He loves the water.
