Which reminds me, by the way, that I saw a wolf in our yard last week! When I saw it, I couldn't believe my eyes! It looked exactly like the one in the picture here. I'd never actually seen one before, but after looking at many pictures and comparing wolf and coyote pictures, I KNOW it was a grey wolf. That was a treat, but I hope it doesn't hang out in our neighborhood too often! We are blessed to live in such a beautiful and somewhat remote area of Michigan. The only thing we lack are the mountains. But we make up for that with beautiful Lake Huron being just a mile away. Not only does the beauty of nature bring us joy, but also being part of the wonderful family of God, which we get to enjoy especially in the people that make up our two churches: Alpena & Onaway.

Mid-winter Michigan & Your Health

It's one of those Michigan mid-winter days. Today is very rainy, cloudy and foggy. And to add to all of that, it is on the verge of snowing which means the liquid falling right now is actually freezing on the roads and trees. Schools have gotten out early and lots of things are canceling. And that's why our phone has been ringing so much this afternoon. Everyone, it seems, wants to know if we are canceling our health class tonight. I must tell you about our health class. It is a really neat thing. Every month we have a class and the attendance has grown to around 50 people. We begin with a tasting buffet and then have a special guest speaker. Tonight's class is special because my parents are the guest speakers. Last month we were on the local TV news and this class is also advertised in the newspaper and on the radio. I'm privileged to be heading it all up. God has been so good to us as we've attempted to help the people around us live healthier lives. I'm praying that somehow tonight people will come and not let the weather stop them. I've decided not to cancel the class and go forward on faith, seeing what God does to bless.
