6/8/25

 

Dear Family,


 

               A normal week can be so nice sometimes.  No shoes dropped, work went fast and oh dear, now that I think of it something a little overwhelming is happening.  Raspberries and cherries are ripe at the same time.  Saturday morning included a lot of pruning to set a watering hose down for the raspberries.  Bobby helped pick one day and Adriel said she would help if she lived here.  That was sweet of her – I remember she used to help the first week when fruit was exciting and new.  So . . it . . . begins.  Abundant blessings to come.  Thank goodness I only have one row of raspberries now.

               Bobby cooked several times and I enjoyed the food.  He also mowed the lawn and is kind to me.  I enjoy his company.

               Tuesday night at middle school group one of our youth went towards the fridge for filtered water.  Bobby mentioned that they would need a cup.  Then he thought about it and said, “Do you suck on the water spigot at home?” The youth and their father affirmed that this person indeed does.  Bobby mentioned, “You are just a giant hamster aren’t you?”

               When Bobby asked, “What is an example of bad fruit in youth group” someone had to say, “Bananas”.  That was funny but Bobby had to explain that he meant spiritual fruit – “So gossip would be an example, not a banana.”  This even though they just played catch with bananas at game time.

               The High school group had a special night with one of our visiting missionaries.  Oliver Haumann spoke about being a physical therapist and how that is a wonderful inroads to introducing the gospel to people through prayer.  Our youth were attentive and asked great questions.  I enjoyed trying different foods that Oliver brought.  I was inwardly super excited because I believe several of our youth want to help in the medical field so seeing their minds expanded with the possibility of using their talent for God was wonderful.

               May you also be given wisdom about how your talents and ability can serve God where you are.  Warm love and hugs, Cristy
