THE MOVIE

From Louisa May Alcott comes this passionate story of forbidden love and dangerous rivalry in 18th century New England.  Beautiful orphan Edith Adelon lives as a paid companion to the wealthy Hamilton family’s daughter, Amy.  When Edith falls in love with an eligible bachelor (Thomas Gibson, TV’s Criminal Minds)—visiting to court a Hamilton cousin, Ida (Brigid Brannagh, TV’s Army Wives)—she struggles to make sense of her position within the Hamilton household and society, her loyalty to her patrons, and her love for a young man she’ll never marry.  Also starring three-time Emmy Award nominee Meredith Baxter.

SMT Verse #24

Verse #24!!!  We made it ladies...2 verses a month for one year.  I am so proud of you who stuck with your commitment!

The verses I have chosen to memorize this time around are found in Colossians 1.  They are two verses that we are asked to memorize for our Bible study..."That I May Know Him".  It is Paul's prayer for the church in Colossae and my prayer for our study group and for me.  I truly do want to walk in a manner worthy of my Savior. 

"For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God."

Colossians 1:9-10

Let me know what you have chosen to be your final verse for this one year commitment.  And let me encourage you to keep this commitment going.  It is so important to hide His Word in our hearts.  I think I'll use the next couple of months to refresh these 24 verses so that I don't forget them.  Then I'll start adding to my list again.  It has been an honor to be on this journey with you.  Let's continue pressing on toward the goal for the prize of the the upward call of God in Christ Jesus! (Phil 3:14)

March Lunch Bunch

SMT Verse #23

It's our last month of the year-long Scripture Memory challenge.  We only have two more verses to hide in our hearts...
not forever =) but for this challenge.

I have chosen to memorize a couple of verses from Ephesians this time around.

"Therefore be careful how you walk,

not as unwise men but as wise, making the most

of your time, because the days are evil.  So then

do not be foolish, but understand

what the will of the Lord is."

Ephesians 5:15-17 (NASB)

Let us know what God has placed on your heart to memorize.  I'm proud of you!!

Craft and Chat @ Walls of Clay--Take Two :-)

Saturday, March 5th from 6-9pm

Fun and easy to do: pick your piece of pottery, create your design and then paint it. No creative ideas? No problem!  There are books full of ideas as well as stamps and stencils that are sure to inspire you. The cost of the evening depends on the piece(s) of pottery you choose to paint.

If you want a child’s handprint/footprint on your design, you will need to go in earlier in the week to get the print on your piece.

Walls of Clay is at a new location but still in downtown McKinney: 211 N. Kentucky.
