you’ve got mail…

February 23, 2009

Once again I am watching my “comfort” movie. I don’t know if it is the story, the setting, or the music, but when I am a little blue, (or just cold!) I love to put in “You’ve Got Mail” and watch/listen to the movie. I have seen it so many times that Molly, 9, likes […]

Coffee and Shopping

November 14, 2008

Many of you know that we moved to North Carolina to be near family. It was a blessing that David’s company let him telecommute until the contract ran out. Then David, for the first time since college, was without a job. 40 days….it has been quite a learning and trusting experience for all of us. […]

October 24, 2008

Hey,After a crazy weekend full of fun and family…it is sooo hard to send the kids back to school and actually get anything done. The mountain of laundry we didn’t fold last weekend while we were having so much fun has been moved on and off our bed all week. I guess that is what […]

Dangerous Women

May we be dangerous women.
May we be women who acknowledge our power to change, and grow, and be radically alive in God.
May we be healers of wounds and righters of wrongs.
May we weep with those who weep and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.
May we cherish children, embrace the elderly, and empower the poor.
May we pray deeply and teach wisely.
May we be strong and gentle leaders.
May we sing songs of joy and talk down fear.
May we never hesitate to let passion push us , conviction propel us, and righteous anger energize us.
May we strike fear into all that is unjust and evil in the world.
May we dismantle abusive systems and silence lies with truth.
May we shine like stars in a darkened generation.
May we overflow with goodness in the name of God and by the power of Jesus.
And in that name, and by that power, may we change the world.
