Wow! God is really working at COBC

We had 82 people at church today. We had a church workday just yesterday and decided to rearrange the chairs to try to accommodate all the people God has been bringing to church. Well, we found a way to fit in about 20 more chairs (most of which were just purchased yesterday). Well, had we not done that, we wouldn't have had places for people to sit. Thank the Lord for His faithfulness and goodness. God is bringing in people to meet all the specific individual needs at church and we are so thankful to be able to see God at work.

A Change Up This Year

One thing that Mark and I did growing up was put together a puzzle with our families. This is our second Christmas together and we decided to change things up a little. Last year we had a great Christmas at my in-laws in Portland and put a beautiful winter scene puzzle. This year....we started a model air plane!

Spending time with Friends on Christmas Day!

Mark and I had a fun time on Christmas Day visiting different friends from Church. Art and Margurite Lowery graciously had us over for a wonderful dinner (with the largest turkey I've ever seen in my life!) and we were able to see Mary and meet her family. We also got to visit the Michell family for a few seconds and the evening ended with our friends JJ and Melissa bringing supper over to our house and playing Settlers of Catan. It was quite a fun-filled day. We are so thankful to the Lord for the friends He has given us here in Bend.
