A blog from Jason about last saturday!!

Tom & Rose, Robert & Pat, Sherry, and I were immensely blessed to be able to be a part of the ministry trip to Anna Marie and Christine's home in Santa Fe Saturday. It was a wonderful day to do some yardwork. The trip up was a nice ride to enjoy some caffeine and brotherly fellowship. Robert was awesome to bring some great tools for the trip and He sure knew how to use them while Anna Marie had laid out a bunch of tool and a wide array of snacks. Tom and Rose had picked out some beautiful flowers including Geraniums that Christine likes. The first thing I noticed upon being welcomed into Anna Marie and Christine's home was the glowing beauty of Christine and her wonderful collection of art! So we commenced to get some yardwork done. Robert hopped right to trimming some trees(some nice size branches!), blowing leaves and clearing beds, Rose and Sherry went to arranging the flowers in pots and plastic beds and did an amazing job arranging the colors. Pat and I trimmed up some vines and picked up some leaves while Tom cracked a whip if we got out of line, just kidding; Tom cleaned the beds, fixed the gate door, trimmed bushes and beds, and helped move everything. There was an aroma of Rosemary and Sage. Everything went smoothly and upon breaking for lunch I have to say I feel we really did get the long end of the stick on this one..... Anna Marie and Christine had prepared a wonderful lunch of enchiladas, tortillas, beans, and the fixins! Sherry brought dessert; it was so good! Sherry and Rose positioned some pots with beautiful arrangements outside the kitchen and Christine's bedroom for her to be able to gaze upon. We all prayed with Christine for a sweet peaceful moment before finishing up and leaving but not before Anna Marie and Christines family stopped by and we were able to meet them; they were very kind and warm, smiling alot. Robert took most of the bags and limbs(quite abit) with him and threw them away themselves. I was so impressed by how easily and loving everyone worked together, it is so cool when God's children get together and there is just a peace and joy getting in the sunlight of the Son and planting some seeds!
your brother in Christ,
Jason
