Hannah’s Baptism Posted on September 6, 2007 By pamela This is the first of several posts… I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.” 3John 1.4 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. Romans 6.3-4 … that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another n love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called n one hope of our calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, nd through all, and in you all. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Ephesians 4.1-7 Hannah’s baptism… we praise the Lord for the gift of Hannah. Family
Bountiful beauty Posted on August 19, 2008 Pretty soon the beautiful hydrangeas will stop blooming for the year… For now, each morning I love to walk around the yard and see the beautiful variety and lovely shades of blues, greens, purples, lavenders and red hydrangeas… these are my favourite flowers… but the roses are quite lovely, too….

blessings Posted on April 16, 2007 There is immeasurable value in seizing great opportunities and making significant sacrifices on behalf of our families. These sacrifices might include, time, money, missing other good things, discomfort, inconvenience, etc., etc. But, through the years we, as a couple and as a family, have seen the greatest blessings come from… Read More
Mama Lolli Pop Posted on March 21, 2008 After seeing our family’s singing debut (with the happy birthday video we made for Timothy so could see & hear us singing to him from the other side of the world) our friend called me, Mama Lolli Pop. I already have a mousy voice — but increase the speed of… Read More
Yep—it is. Except I’ve stopped using Crisco and just use butter or 1/2 c. butter 1/2 c. olive oil in its place. So, yep—it “about” that recipe… give or take a bit here and there. ~wink~ If you follow that one and basically add or deduct a bit of the flour or the sugar or both, then you’ll have it. As I cook, it’s basically a “feels right” sort of thing… if the dough feels right, then it’s all working out. If not, then I might need to add more or less flour, more oil or butter or whatever. You’ll get the hang of it right away. I also have started using fresh ground wheat flour for at least half of that recipe. I guess I ought to go and update that page — it’s been up for *years!* yikes! http://www.achristianhome.org/GoodThingsandRecipes/BreadsMuffinsScones.htm thanks for the note! love you! –ps
I don’t know your e-mail address, so this might be weird but, the cinnamon roll recipe that you have listed; is that the recipe that you used for MVCC camp outs?
Yes, Bekah! Wes was so honoured to have been able to baptize Hannah. She accepted Christ as Saviour many years ago, but hadn’t been baptized… and told Wes she knew the Lord was leading her and that it was time and so… it really was a sweet baptism service. She’s quite amazing and we look forward to what God will do in and through her as she walks with Him. I hope you’re doing well!
