Great Party everyone. 



McCafe' Staff


You each in your own way make things special and exciting.  We had fun, learned some stuff and enjoyed our smoothie's...it was all delightful. Speaking of Smoothies, these guys worked really hard to make your Smoothie Tuesday happen.  They were adorable!

Kathy Schell started us off with some amazing songs.  I love the old hymns so I was drying my eyes by the time The Old Rugged Cross was finished. 

Thank you Kathy!




I know it is hard to answer questions but Cathy made it look easy, of course, she's not the answer man, she's the answer woman.  Thank you for those answer's Cathy, it clarified some things for me and I appreciate your putting yourself out there, putting yourself on the line and taking the risk.  Still confused...


Dispensation Chart from Bing.


about what a dispensation is? Reading about Dispensations can bog your mind, check this out: Dispensationalism  The chart I have on the Blog is only a sample of how Dispensations could look if charted.  Don't hold me or Cathy accountable for it's legitimacy. it's just a Bing image.

You ladies made Cathy's Celebration amazing in every way. 

I am awed by your love for Cathy and for your generosity in making her feel special.  I enjoyed filling her life with Polka Dots, believe me she won't forget us for a long time. 

My Cards

Thank you also,
for treating me and Kathy Schell, my basket was laden with all types of Scrapbook goodies that I will enjoy using and the polka dots abounded in every size and color.  It wasn't expected, but very much appreciated, the most precious things in the basket were the cards.  Oh my, I felt loved, appreciated and humbled all at the same time.  Some of you saw the gift of God in me, and that was the most precious gift of all as my desire is to please and honor Him in all I do.  Honestly, most ideas come from Him, He provides everything needed for the task and then gives me joy and pleasure while I serve you in His name.  It's all good. I'm the receiver of the blessing and so are you.  Thank you Lord.






Our class is almost over and we only have one more way to honor God and give our boys in blue a hug.  Thank all of you for the things you brought this week and I know next week we'll get more.  Garrett is going to be so shocked and awed.  All because of  you and your giving hearts and spirits.  You are all so awesome!

Don't forget the Luncheon/Auction.  We will have mucho fun and get some good deals.  Don't wait, make it a date.

See you Tuesday, Meribeth

Jesus Follows All the Dots, All the Time!

 SO THAT THE WORLD MAY KNOW!  and it's a BIG world.

Wow, Cathy, I loved your study this week. (What's new?) When God Connects the Dots, they are fully connected, thoroughly revealed, leaving no doubt.  Jesus fulfilled every dot, He went above and beyond to the smallest detail, making sure there were no loop holes.  He did all this so the World would know, that He is the one, He is the Way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father but through Him. John 14:6

We have so many things to be thankful for, so many opportunities to make a difference.  I'm going to review our last few blogs so you will all know what is coming.  But FIRST let's do the Pet's on Parade.  We have a new dogie courtesy of  Trudie Coe.

Shammy the Sweet Poodle!

(Often called Shambles)

Here is Trudie Coe's doggy, Chamois (pronounced Shammy).  Trudie says,.....He was named Chamois, because he is the color of a Chamois.  Mostly now, he is called Shambles -- as that is how he can leave a room -- in shambles!  He is a 10 month old miniature poodle puppy.  He is a very smart fellow and loves everyone and everything.  He puts his toys away and rings a little bell to go outside.  He brings us lots of laughs, fun and love.

This Tuesday is, Q& A, Pink Pig Tuesday, and Fruit Smoothie Tuesday.  It's Party Time in Class!!

                                                                                                                                                                             

If you want a Fruit Smoothie this coming Tuesday but didn't sign up just email me with your choice of flavor and I'll collect the money when I get to class.  Choices: Strawberry Banana or Wild Berry, and only $3.00.  Yummy!

CONNECTING PRAYER DOTS

Kathy Schell, you amaze me.

  The study on prayer was excellent and WOW, did we learn a lot.  Following Jesus as He taught the disciples to pray, not WHAT to pray... but HOW to pray!  The prayer time afterward was sooooo encouraging.  Thank you, Kathy, for your attention to detail and sharing your heart with us. 

We have lots of adventures coming up. 

And the end of the session is fast approaching.

LET'S SAY THANKS TO OUR MILITARY:


Lt. Garrett Moore

We have so many wonderful serving families at SBC and one of those in our class is the Moore family. Lt. Garrett Moore, Kathy Moore's son and Marianne Moore's grandson is serving in Iraq.  He is a Navy Seal and on active duty.  We thought as a class we could pull together a token of our appreciation in a care package to send to Garrett.  Next Tuesday we will have a sign up sheet and a list of some good things to put in the package.  Chloe Kavanaugh is our contact person.  We will bring our items on April 19 and April 26.  Aren't we thankful for men like Garret who are willing to put their lives on the line for us.  Garrett, we salute you!

FASHION SHOW AND SILENT AUCTION LUNCHEON:
Don't forget to bring your donations to Cathy the next few weeks.  We would love to see you at this fun event and I'm willing to take your checks and get them into the right hands, so feel free to bring them to class.  Make your check payable to Chosen People Ministries.  $10. a person. It is going to be a fun time with lots of opportunities to score a treasure or two.

PASSOVER SEDER:
You won't want to miss this opportunity to get a wee glimpse into the lives of the Old Testament Jews as they celebrated Passover.  Cathy will lead you into discovering the Jewish family tradition and explain the mysteries of the Passover elements.  Bring your friends and family and a dish to share.

See you Tuesday, Meribeth
