Ministry To Others

"And do not neglect doing good and sharing; for with such sacrifices God is pleased."

Opportunity knocks and we must decide. Will I give my time and resources to help someone in need? Look for places where God is at work and join Him (H. Blackaby). That will be the place God can use you the best.

What's for Supper?

I can not begin to tell you how many times I have looked at my watch about 4:30 or 5:00 (PM) and wondered, What's for Supper? (PANIC) Oh No, my hubby will be home soon and what in the world am I going to do? Perhaps the worst part is that there is food in the freezer, but I have not once thought about bringing it out to thaw. Has this ever happened to you? If it hasn't happened to you, I guess you are REALLY organized and I need your help!!! :)

Tonight was a successful night at the Harris Household. Happy stomachs make for a nice evening. The casserole and pie are so easy and quick. What about you? What ideas do you have for a good evening meal. Please share it with us.

Marriage Maintance

Marriage Maintance is the word we use to encourage couples to work on your relationship on a regular basis. We hope you will have fun with the "homework". If you would like to leave a comment on why you LOVE your spouse, we would really like to hear it. Perhaps, it will motivate someone else to love better.

Sunday - Make a list of the top 10 reasons you love your spouse. Share them with each other.

Monday - Hug and Kiss as you come and go. Make this a habit.

Tuesday - Ask your mate how you can pray for them this week. Be sure to pray for them.

Wednesday - After supper, turn on some music and slow dance.

Thursday - Set a timer for 15 minutes. Work as quickly as possible and pick up the house. Put things where they belong.

Friday - Men - Massage her feet.Ladies - rub his back.

Saturday - Spend a few minutes reviewing your week together. Answer the following questions regarding your marriage relationship.
1.What did we do well this week?
2. What do we need to work on?
3. How can I serve you this week?

Sunday - Go to church!

Welcome to "Happily Ever After"

On Sunday Aug. 17th, Kynn and I will begin teaching our 6th newlywed Sunday School Class. It has been such a privilege for us to be able to serve the Lord in this capacity. We are so excited that my sister, Cynthia Pierce, will be serving along side us as the director of our department. This blog is intended to encourage and uplift newlywed couples, and just maybe some not so new newlyweds. In the upcoming days we will have a "meet and greet" of the new couples in the '08-09 class.
