Some News PLUS a Card!

Whew! Vacation Bible School came to a close Friday night. It is hard to believe the week is already over! I am sad to see it go. This year I had the privilege of working with the 5th and 6th grade girls. We had a blast! I remember Vacation Bible School fondly and I know these ladies will too. Pray for continued blessings on them and their families as they take what they learned out into the world!

In addition, I have some exciting news to share. A few months back, I had the distinct pleasure of working as a guest challenge team member for Our Daily Bread Designs. Many of you know, I am a huge fan of their stamps. Beginning July 9th, I will be joining the Shining the Light Challenge Team. I am so thrilled that Kelley (the owner) and Chris (challenge team coordinator) asked me to come back! The ladies are absolutely wonderful! I just can't say enough about how gracious they have been to me. So please make a point to come out and play! I would love to see you there!

And on to today's card...
