Make it a great day!
Many opportunities to be grateful have presented themselves this week – a home that keeps us comfortable even in the worst weather, a full refrigerator and pantry so we don’t have to make a run to the store, and internet service so we can keep in touch when church is canceled, to name a few. […]
