It is always wonderful to see our returning winter visitors! We at Spirit of Joy delight in your presence and fellowship and, of course, we look forward to renewing friendships at what has been dubbed the Winter Visitors Breakfast, or Snow-Bird Breakfast, if you like the sound of that better. If you are a first time Snow Bird or one of our Winter Visitors who has not yet joined us, please know that are welcome to share in this comradery. Please be sure to sign up for this event as a count is needed ahead of time. And, if you have ques1ons look for Doris Mensch or Pastor Marda-Ruth Roberts.

Last month we enjoyed a special treat, since we chose Friday, February 14, Valentine’s Day to hold our gathering. It turned out to be a FUN time as little Valentine treat bags were placed by our plates, and one innova1ve person brought Valentine Day’s Word Scramble sheets for each person to fill out. Amid the groaning of those who deemed it impossible to figure out the words, it became, not a contest, but an opportunity to get involved in community sharing. Our next get together is scheduled for March 26TH. Mark your calendar.

Marda-Ruth Roberts, Pastor
