Hello Family, Friends and Prayer Partners,

It seems like I am always beginning communication with an exclamation of how long it has been since I have written. Now I find myself in a new year with a load of praise and joy over all that God has done in 2010 as well as excitement at the prospects for the current year, 2011. Can it really be that we have already moved out of the first decade of this century? I remember the thrill of putting on those plastic glasses on New Year’s Eve, 2000. I also remember that in 2000 I was thinner, had less gray roots, and certainly didn’t have the lines and creases that have since appeared on my face. I also remember that I wore braces upon my legs at that New Year’s eve party and this year of 2011 will bring the celebration of ten years of being healed and walking this whole new journey of faith that God has done in and through my life. What a year of praise I have ahead of me!

I will highlight for you the end of 2010 and end of the century’s first decade.
