Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Wednesday Evening , April 5 When I saw this sky outside our living room window – which faces southeast – I knew there must be a pretty sunset. I was not disappointed when I went outside. Still looking southeast. South Southwest West North It has been a long time since I saw a sunset that […]
Monday, April 3 This female Red-bellied woodpecker looked pretty in the morning sun. The day got even better when my sister brought 6 freshly-made eggs – 4 peanut butter and 2 coconut. The peanut butter eggs have decorations that begin with the letter P – pink and purple. I eat the coconut and Cerwin eats […]
Sunday, April 2 This female downy just sat and watched as I took her photo from our car. I think she is enjoying the warmer weather. Inge, this is one of your daffodils – at the gravesite of your feline friends Timothy and Barnabas. Daffodils in our memory garden – from my dad. I brought three […]
Sunday, April 2 Kristen made homemade noodles for Jana’s choice of fettuccini for lunch. This looks like ingredients for a delicious salad.

Monday Evening, April 3 We were in Maine during the New Year when we learned that a brain mass had recently been discovered, then a few days later another mass was found in David’s lower right lung. (David’s sister Mary Jane and her husband Dennis are part of our church family in Lewiston, Maine.) The information did […]
Saturday morning, April 1 The first two pictures are borrowed from Inge’s blog. Dan Witwer, Vice President of Staff Development, organized some friends and TFC staff to do spring cleanup on the grounds.

Friday Evening, March 31 It was a rainy drive to Yoder’s in New Holland. Ephrata We liked the buggy’s mud flap. 🙂 The screen welcomed us and told us to check out the door prizes. Many are items crafted by First Nations people and books written by LHNM missionaries and friends. We each received a numbered ticket […]
Thursday, March 30 I was on the way home from taking my step-mother to the eye doctor when I got a text from our daughter-in-law Kristen, asking if I would like some homemade granola. I texted back saying, “Sure.” We stopped for a few groceries and birthday snacks for our granddaughter’s birthday parties – Jenna […]
Thursday, March 30 When this squirrel saw me, it froze in place for a very long time. Maybe he thought I couldn’t see him if sat very still.:) Even when I moved a bit and he moved his head, his feet didn’t move. I find God’s critters to be so interesting.
Tuesday, March 29 The robins are back in our woods. I love to see their bright orange breasts. I see them in the yard more than in our trees. The other day I was watching one pulling a worm from the ground. It almost fell over backward when it finally came out of the ground. […]
Tuesday, March 28 We had a few rainy days this week – Tuesday being one of them. I love a rainy day – as long as I can stay inside. I guess “drippy” is a good description of the day. Then, as always happens, the rain stopped, and the birds came looking for food.
This is what the newest chapel looks like as of today, March 31. It will be used locally – to promote TFC and minister to those who attend truck shows, churches, and fairs. Cerwin took this photo with his cell phone – from the office/living quarters looking toward the chapel area. The chapel area On the exterior, […]
Congratulations to our son Jeff on 32 years of safe driving with White Oak Mills
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High
Sunday, March 26 Cerwin noticed this beautiful cardinal and took a picture while making me a cup of coffee after lunch. Today, after taking my step-mother to an eye doctor appointment, she gave me a note book in which my Dad had written some of his favorite quotes. I especially liked these: “Today’s deeds will be tomorrow’s […]
We love you! Grandpa & Grandma High
Saturday Evening, March 25 Gene Gehman (left) – MC for the evening. Chaplain Joe Matthews (right) – praying for the meal and evening program. Yoder’s does a fabulous job of cooking and serving the meal. I haven’t received the exact count, but we were prepared for 625 people. There were probably a few less than that because I noticed a few […]
