A few weeks ago, our church fellowship had a special celebration. We brought to mind and gave thanks to the Lord for how He sovereignly worked to bring us together one year prior. Each head of household related the details of his family's experience of how we met and were drawn together. We then had a time of thankful prayer, and after some time in the Scriptures, we enjoyed our Lord's Table meal -- complete with a Sarah-baked anniversary cake.
It was a very encouraging time in the Lord, and we appreciate these dear folks with whom we have been knitted together.
"Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth." 1 Chronicles 16:12

What a beautiful church family. Congratulations.

We remember one year ago very well also! We appreciate the time we had with your two families in church. You are an encouragement to our little church way over here on the other coast.
That's a beautiful cake Sarah!
(What talented daughters you have!)
