Well, we got our home ready for the 40 Days of Community and began meeting this past Sunday afternoon; I even got to take a very short nap and decided to make Karen's world famous "Easy Banana Coffee Cake". But of course I should have not worried about serving some refreshments because one of our small group made a delicious pumpkin pie dessert, spam musubis and watabi salad---so of course, what did we do? We ate FIRST and visited a long while enjoying the treats before we had our DVD teaching with Pastor Rick Warren. Several of our group was off island but will be with us this Sunday. We were also encouraged to invite others to join us and so we are praying for God to show us who to invite. Will be expecting a greater blessing this week when we come together again! I have heard encouraging reports all week long about the other groups meeting. Praise be to God! Daniel
