A Luncheon {w/Sister Mary}

Yesterday [Sunday] the Keeper members, their parents and some youth gathered for a luncheon.
Amidst much talking and laughing Uncle Philip picked up the microphone and called everyone to attention.    
He explained the reason for this gathering….  Sister Mary Norman; a wonderful 89 year old lady was going to share some stories and testimonies from her life with us! He introduced Sister Mary Norman, and her daughter {also a Mary}.  
Quietness reigned as Grandpa prayed over the food and then lunch was served.  
Hanging out__Hope, Faith, Lillia, Bethany, Elainah & Joy

Sweet Girls__ Elainah, Ella, Joy & Bethany

Talking__ Anna, Joanna, Me, Grace, Abigail & Kaitlyn


When everyone was full of the [delicious} soup and sandwiches, they pulled their chairs closer to Sister Mary and listened as she began to speak. Story after story was told... We heard about; how she came to the message, the time she was prayed for, and so many other instances! Her memory was so sharp and it was amazing to hear [and see] how God had richly blessed this special lady.

It was such a wonderful time of fellowship, and we all enjoyed ourselves...I would like to thank Uncle Philip, Aunt Jody and all those who worked to make this luncheon possible!   --"Thanks"--

....Oh, and I'm sorry there are no pictures of the tables or food.... very sorry!
