Sept. 8,2012 - Grantley's off on his YES! adventure

Leaving home for church and saying goodbye to Evan.

We brought a lunch so we could leave for Lancaster directly to get to James Street church by 3:00.

Wasn't expecting to meet Rhoda Lehman Hershey, a friend from growing up days at Pleasant View Church.

Dustin borrowed a big white van and brought the whole youth group (practically) to the evening commissioning service.  Both Monica and Grantley were surrounded with love and prayers!

Skrobie, Alyssa, Gr, Audrey, not to mention the picture bomber, Ray.


Helpful workshops in the afternoon and inspiring service in the evening. 

With team Indonesia - Andrew, Grantley, Maria, Lia

Sept. 7,2012 - Grantley's farewell pizza party

Rhoda's 60th Birthday!




Austin Home!



Austin came home Friday and left Sunday.  He needed to get the rest of his stuff for his apartment.  We went yard saleing and had a cook out on Saturday.  Grantley is churning iced almond milk

From Mother's day

A penny for your thoughts!

Frederick had the Jr Youth make a poster like this for each of the moms and posted them in the back of the church for us to try to identify ourselves.  The names were under a construction paper flap.  This was really fun!  Great idea Frederick!

August 30, 2012 Visit with Aunt Gladys

 It was the perfect week to take Mom to Newville to see Aunt Gladys.  I hadn't been to her house in decades.  Changes:  barn's gone, butcher shop still, flower beds overgrow.  But it's still the same place and Aunt Gladys is still there.  Sweet memories.  Sweet Aunt Gladys!
