The Thursday Lunch Bunch gathered for a sweet surprise birthday celebration for Joann Tugwell. Joann’s birthday falls on Friday, September 25, and when asked her age, she cheerfully said she is 16 years old.
We had also hoped to celebrate Opal Behning, but she was unable to join us because of a prior commitment. Opal, we are wishing you a very happy birthday too—and perhaps there will be another reason for cake next week.
These simple moments around the table are a gift to us. In sharing a meal, laughter, and a little birthday cake, we give thanks for the friendships the Lord has placed among us. “A joyful heart is good medicine” — Proverbs 17:22.
