Valentine's Day this year was extra special. For days ahead we made cards and memorized 1Cor13. Before celebrating the holiday with our friends, we all met at a nursing home. We got to hand out valentine's and spend time talking to the residents, and at the end we shared our verse with them and sung a hymn together. One of the gentlemen in the nursing home had been a music director at his church for most of his life, and it was a joy to have him lead us in song. It was an experience the kids and I will never forget. I hope we get more opportunities like this in the future. It was a true blessing.
After our time at the nursing home, we came back to our house with all of our friends. We did a small craft, exchanged valentines, and iced and ate cookies. It was a joyful time with friends. |
