Well, that was a fast summer! Now that it’s September, I’m looking forward to pumpkin spice everything. Incidentally, I really, really like anything pumpkin if you’re in to baking.

Since we moved the trip to the Amana Colonies to October, we are going to go to Pere Marquette on Thursday, September 30. A sign-up sheet will be in the Connection Center, right behind the coffee café.  We will eat their famous fried chicken and then go out onto their wonderful patio and play games. You could also go for a hike if that’s your thing. It will be a wonderful time of fellowship outside as we see God transitioning us to fall. Hope you will join us! Even if you haven’t joined us before, this would be a great trip to try us out. This is a tradition for the Prime Time group as the food is spectacular and the setting is gorgeous.

I hope you are keeping up with our reading plan in the first five books of the Bible. It is so good to look at the patriarchs and see that they were men just like us. They made mistakes, they didn’t tell the truth, they sometimes doubted God, but God loved them anyway. He loves us too. And He wants us to choose to love Him back. I hope your relationship with God is growing continually, and reading scripture every day will certainly help that.

By the next Forerunner I will have a definite price for our trip to the Amana colonies. It will require a deposit so that we can make sure that our costs are covered. Join us for this trip; it will be a great adventure!
