( Prime Timers)
WE'RE BACK!!! Prime Timers starts with their monthly meeting beginning tomorrow night @ 6PM. Bring a covered dish and come enjoy the food and fellowship! Then... join Prime-Timers on Thursday as they travel to Okeechobee for a "KINGSMEN" music concert. The Prime Timers trip to The Holy Land in January
Our Prime Timers hosted a Parade of Homes this past Christmas.
These are the kind folks that opened their homes to share their love of Christ and their Christmas decorations with all who came. Christ is what Christmas is all about
For My Grandchildren We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand-me down clothes and homemade icecream and leftover meatloaf sancdwiches. I really would . I hope you learn humility by beinghumiliated, and that you learn honesty by being cheated. I hope you learn to make your bed and mow the lawn and wash the car. And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are 16. It will be good if atleast one time you can see puppies born and your old dog put to sleep. I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in. I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother. And it's allright if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope let him. When you want to see a movie and your little sister wants to tag along, I hope you'll let her. I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely. On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your "driver" to drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as your Mom. If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of buying one. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books. When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in your head. I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush and a girl, and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what Ivory soap tastes like. May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick your toung on a frozen flagpole. If you try a beer once I hope you don't like it and never do it again. And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he is not a friend. I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma and go fishing with your Uncle. May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays. I hope your Mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor's window and that she hugs you and kisses you at Christmas time when you give her a mold of your hand. These things I wish for you-tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness. To me, it's the only way to appreciate life. Even to your old age, I am He, And even to gray hairs I will carry you! I have made, and I will bear; Even I will carry, and will deliver you Isaiah 46:4 |
