A Heavenly Quilt Retreat

Last week was a quilt of laughter, shopping, sharing and food.  Twelve women shared two houseboats at the Paducah Quilt Show.  We are all quilter of varying degrees, some long time and some short.  Most are exceptional in their details and perfection and some of us just enjoy looking at our quilts from a distance.  We all like the colors - Civil War reproductions of rich hues, Batiks of bright patterns, Blues and creams of warmth and even airplanes or cartoon characters.

The real joy of this group is the deep experiences of loving Jesus, telling others about Jesus, sharing Jesus in all they do and joining together everywhere for prayer.  As each one pieces together quilts they piece together other lives and care so much for those who are in need.

I truly wish everyone could experience this kind of joy.  You all encourage me to do more.   It sustains me!  Thank you each one of you for being a part of my life.  Blessings and grace to you as we start planning for next year.
