Before bed while we prayed The Lord’s Prayer Lily asked our Father to:
“Give us this day our staley bread.”
Poor babies.

Living Seasonally
In rural Nebraska it’s hard to not be affected by the seasons and what they mean for our community. Fall is clearly Harvest Time here. You can’t ignore the combines, balers and dust all around. And for the first time since we’ve lived here there is a ton of color everywhere and it just makes me smile!
Celebrating Michaelmas
October 1st, 2012 by Aubri
This is our first year to celebrate the Feast of St. Michael and All Angels, September 29th. There tends to be a lot of curiosity and misunderstanding about angels, so I think this is a great Feast day to keep with our kiddos. (Those things on the table are the “last minute angel necklaces” I made for them to wear to church on Sunday morning.)
I found a pretty good article (“St. Micheal and All Angels” by Albert B . Collver III), here is a quote, you can read the rest HERE:
“The celebration of St. Michael and All Angels reminds us of how the Lord delivered us from the lying accusations of Satan. It shows us that the battle against Satan and his evil angels is not won by power, might, strength or numbers but, as Martin Luther’s great Reformation hymn “A Mighty Fortress” confesses, “One little word can fell him.” That one little Word is Jesus and the forgiveness He gives us.”
