My husband and I love to go camping. Of course, you can't go camping without a campfire, and my husband loves campfires.
He's a master at making things burn.
The Least of These

I've ranted about our unwillingness to step outside ourselves to serve. I've raved about our desire for comfort and safety over our desire to participate in God's kingdom work.
Today, I want to point you to a friend who chose the dangerous yet loving path. She, her husband, and her three kids took a Christmas meal to inmates at a prison.
Fun surprises: the gratitude of the inmates.
More than that, how she was blessed by them.

Mentor Monday--Art for the Poor
By hgoodman - Posted on December 3rd, 2007
I met Brenda Gribbin at a women's retreat. She led a breakout session
on using art in prayer. It was an amazing class, but even more amazing
was this woman standing in front of me. I realized that this was the
woman behind so much of the art I had seen at our church. Brenda uses
her art to work through her prayers, reflect her relationship with
Christ, and raise money for the needy. Often, she sells pieces and
donates the money to Real Options (a ministry for pregnant women) or
Buckner (a ministry for orphans both in the States and around the

My Thanksgiving holiday was stuffed with people, food, and decking my
halls. Oh, how I love the decorations. Yes, I'm a saccarine sucker when
it comes to these things.
We got our Christmas tree--Hans is his name. He's donned with blue lights and ornaments. But more on that later this week.
Today, I'd like to introduce you to Maria.

Heather is a missionary in Kenya along with her husband, Brian, and
their kids. They have been involved with church plants, setting up
church training, establishing primary schools and water wells, working
with an orphanage, and engaged with AIDS/HIV victims.
That's a busy day.
I asked Heather to share her struggle in her ministry. I've learned one thing about missionaries: they're everyday people with everyday struggles and doubts who have chosen to follow God's calling anyway. Thankfully, Heather is willing to open up about her struggle and doubt.

Mentor Monday--All without Air Conditioning

I was so proud of myself, of us, really. My husband, my parents, and I decided one Christmas morning to serve breakfast at a homeless shelter called GodTell.
Yes, so spiritual.
We spooned eggs on to their plates along with toast and hash browns, orange juice and coffee, and a smile, of course. Then I played some carols on the piano. Mary took us on a tour: the rooms, neat and clean, the storage area with diapers stacked and donated clothes hung, the bathrooms, scrubbed and sanitized.

about me
It is important that you know that my middle name is Anne (spelled with an "e"). It is my mother's middle name and my grandmother's middle name. It is the name of my favorite character, Anne of Green Gables. I want to be Anne of Green Gables, red hair and all. When not blogging, I love twirling and dancing to my favorite music on our smooth concrete floor.
