In early December, several families from our local congregation were blessed with being able to attend the "Love the Church" conference. Two words: information overload. :) Before this, I cannot remember ever learning so much at once. It was an awesome time of growing in Christ and learning about the Church. I trust that everyone that went was blessed by the excellent speakers and wonderful Christian fellowship as much as I was. Here are a few snapshots from the weekend. :)
Abby, Matt, Andy and Cal are pretty excited!
Yay! A break! Taking the opportunity to get some fresh air and sunshine. :o)
Wish I could've spent more time with y'all!
Mallory and their fancy shmancy camera ;o) Meanwhile, random folks look confused and partake in conversation....
Deny it all you want, Mike. We know you enjoyed the song. :P
See what I mean about the great fellowship? :)
"We are not the thing that primarily moved God to save us. If God were to search all the hearts of all the men, take all the virtue, and combine it together it would not be enough to move Him to save us." "The only thing we could ever motivate a Holy God to do is to condemn us." -Paul Washer

Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

PS Cafeteria trays make the BEST sleds!! :o)
Great post, Mandy! Loved it. :D Whew! Now that I've seen snow, been pelted by snowballs, played in it, etc. All those things you do in snow...do I qualify for never having to see it again? ;););) Anyways, wonderful conference. :D Paul Washer was *great*. :D

We are still getting through all of the CDs. They are so rich! I know when Kitty and Grace returned they were very much overflowing with what God had taught them.
Yes, I have a sneaking suspicion that the "humble and quiet red head" greatly enjoyed his song.
Great Paul Washer quote!
Loved the captions - as always! Cafeteria trays - how creative!
Love you,
A very dysfunctional Mrs. D. who has been shown much grace and mercy and is therefore somewhat functional :)
