That's Entertainment

You may have your movies and your malls, but we have our own means of entertainment.  If you were here, you would thank me for the time-lapse feature.

Christmas Cheer 2015

Here are a few glimpses of my touches of Christmas cheer on this side of the pond. 
 Just remember that one person's pitiful might be another person's festive. 
 As they would say in Liberia, "We are trying small."

in the absence of store-bought wreaths...you improvise and make your own...using local fabric

and then there's the christmas tree

 
the dining area
what do you use to make stockings? leftover fabric from the tablecloth, 
tree skirt and wreath, of course!

the little wooden christmas tree is from mali, the candle dish from morroco, 
and the book of short stories from shelby

i knew those little clearance picks would come in handy scattered here and there

Good News A/G - Sinkor

we were blessed to share the sunday before christmas 2015 with pastor emmanuel zabay and his congregation
the church is in the process of major rennovation...ceiling fans are coming...in the meantime hand fans with various designs were distributed today to be used during service
this little fan made me smile...as if just for me....
but then i looked over and realized that I was not the only hipp chick!
if you look closely you can see that gaylord's shirt is almost entirely wet...it's a good thing he shed the coat before taking the pulpit
 
"the reason for christmas" sermon
signs of the season were all around
what a great way to begin the week of christmas...in church with God's people.
