2nd Time Around

Jack and I are putting together a new ministry for folks that have been married the second time around. We have talked to many couples in the church and there is a feeling that some of them don't feel that they connect and they think that it is because they are re-married. So we have had several couples into our home to talk about this ministry. We think that we could start out having a social get-together and see where it goes from here.
I feel that God has made all of us different and with that we all learn from one another. But some people have a harder time accepting this and never really grow as a person or as a Christian. We hope to be able share experiences and have a fun time doing it....the one common denominator is the fact that we all have learned to grow from our experiences.
The recipe exchange was successful in helping bring women together to show off there talents in baking, serving and being crafty. We had around 25-30 ladies come out this past Saturday and share their talents. I really love this time of the year which is nearly upon us. And I especially love trying out new recipes that have already been shared with others.
After this exciting day it was time to change out the furniture covers to our red corduroy and what a difference it made in the family room....you almost think that you are in a different house. I really am excited to get going on the Christmas decorating now!
