Moving into the New Year..... Thanks Dana.

The University of LaVerne, is one of our Denomination's schools in Southern California. One of the many programs they support is a Summer Service Worker program.  They supply a student to the local church to come and work for the church for the summer in most any role the church might have.  It is an excellent program for both the student and the Church.  Through the years we had a variety of students come and work for us .  We mostly had them work with our youth groups and our summer camping programs.  Down through the years it has been good to see those young people as grown ups. 


Dana Hawley is one of the young ladies that served our Salkum Church in Washington State.  Dana, has had some rough health issues the last several years.  She is a person I have a deep respect for.  She has a deep faith and even though her health has not been good has one of the most positive attitudes that i know of.  Her posts on Face Book seem to always minister to me. 


She posted her 2018 Happy New Years post this morning.... i wanted to share it on my Blog Page.  She suggested on Face Book, that we could copy it and share it and as usual i found it good advice.  here it is....


"  I'm walking into 2018 with an open heart and mind. I have a clear conscious for the choices I made in 2017.....


If you owe me, don't worry about it - You're Welcome!...
If you wronged me, it's all good - I learned a lesson! ...
If you're angry with me, you've won....
If we aren't speaking, I'm good!! (I wish you well) ...
I know my effort & integrity....
If you feel I wronged you, and you have told everyone but me...
Peace be unto You....
Life is too short for me to have the pent up anger, for me to hold grudges or to not receive the same love that I have given you.
We all must learn to let it go.
Strive to be Gracious and show mercy at all times.
Teach children the same♡.
Accept that being Humble is the better path.
So, here is to 2018!!!
Spread Love not Hate.
Merry Christmas to Everyone!
Joy Noel! Happy
Yule! Peace,
Love, Health, and Happiness!
