We have all been affected by the horrific tornados of December 10th! Our thoughts are with the families that lost homes, family and friends, businesses, communities….life, as they knew it. The rest of us, are now springing in, to help with time, supplies, $$$, prayers, and support of any kind. We have experienced a real “coming together” in this time of extreme need! I feel this will be the merriest of Christmases, as we reflect on what is important, giving and not receiving, celebrating family, and celebrating the birth of our Savior!
Many of you have continued to support the $10 Fundraiser, by bringing more minis. The display will remain through the 23rd. Thanks, for your support.
Brenda Foster is recovering from a routine procedure! Her colon was nicked in a couple places, resulting in emergency surgery and now, 50 staples holding her insides, together! For this reason, she will be mailing checks, this month. Keep her in your thoughts, as she heals.
The Featured Artist for this month is Linda Thomasson. Linda’s work is very colorful, check it out! Jenny Fuller is Featured in February.
Hope you have your painting ready and wrapped, for the exchange on December. 28th! Remember, 11×14 or smaller, and bring a treat, to share. Always, a fun evening!
