Tomorrow I’m headed up to Shaker Village for what can best be called a family reunion.  The folks that are coming to Shaker to join Jim and I are, in effect, family!  We started a program to reward attendees that had attended four or more workshops, kind of a thank you and incentive program.   What we never realized was that these people would transition from being great “customers” to being “truly great friends”!  We got to know them as people, not just students!  Over the years I’ve come to realize just how much our brothers and sisters in Christ and friends mean to us.  God’s greatest gifts are the people he places in our lives.  Nothing trumps the value of family and friends!

 

For the next few days I will try to get off some blog entries, but if I miss a day or two, please forgive me, I’ve got something more important to do, love on the great gifts God has allowed me to enjoy and make sure they know how thankful I am for them!

 

Blessings,
