Birdies


We have lots of wildlife in the yards - birds, squirrels, raccoons - even possums.

My favorite is the blue scrub jays that come for peanuts. They squawk each morning until my husband puts a handful of peanuts on top of a storage bin. Then they come one at a time to pick out the correct ones. They are quite fussy and will shake two or three until they get the one they want!


The squirrels try to steal the peanuts, but our dog, Maggie, keeps guard.


Christmas

Our new Christmas Cantata will be presented on December 25th, at 10:30 a.m. Titled "Star of Wonder" it was inspired by Star Wars, or at least the opening credits. Using contemporary songs the cantata simply tells of God's wonderful gift to us, a gift that was announced by a wonderous star.
