We are off to Flora House today. Half of us will go with the children to camp and the others half. Will stay to start cleaning, organizing, painting, etc.

We will definitely have lots to share when we get back. The entire team was overwhelmed yesterday with the personal stories that some people trusted us with. Please keep us in your prayers!

Book Club!
Like to read? We're going to start an on-line book study, providing there are enough people who want to participate. Summer is a great time to read! We will set up an on-line discussion board, so that we can discuss the books from the comfort of home, or cottage, or car, or where ever you are! Suggested books to read: Life of Pi, I Shall Not Hate, 12 Years a Slave, The Help, The Embers, The Kite Runner, The Sparrow. (The Bookroom is willing to give us 10% off their price with free shipping right to our homes) Let me know if you are interested/what book(s) you would suggest! ~ Joni

Thank you, to Shirley and her group of happy pie makers, for baking such delicious pies.
And the potato salad was pretty awesome, too!
Thank you to everyone who supported this fundraiser for the Mission Trip to
Winnipeg Inner City Missions in July.

If you have any such beautiful pictures (and I know that you have) please forward them to me at [email protected]
