The inveterate stay-at-home Mauri and Sherry want you to know they have ventured out to enjoy two drama performances in the past two weeks.
Joseph, the young man on the right, was a toddler when I first met him. And we’re particularly fond of his extended family. So of course we wouldn’t want to miss seeing [...]

I know, I know—I’m a little carried away with this healthy eating thing. But you can’t knock it if you haven’t tried it. So I’m trying it. And so far, I’m liking it a lot! Maybe it’s because I’m nearing the 30-pound mark—lost, not gained, for a change.

His parents had a birthday brunch planned, not only to celebrate Oscar’s first year but also to thank all the friends who have supported [...]

On Tuesdays we meet as a team (pastors and Denise and me) to check in, do a spiritual practice, pray, work through an agenda, and eat lunch together. I love team meeting so didn’t necessarily long for a change, but today’s field trip to Tilikum was especially nice because the sun added lovely warmth to [...]
