Jesse Tree book ideas anyone/

Hi ladies,
do any of you have a good Jesse Tree/Advent book you might suggest?
thanks

Jesse Tree!!!

I think these are sculpy.

On Friday November 22 I am hosting a Jesse Tree ornament exchange.  Here's how it works.  There are 24, or 25 days in Advent this year.  If 8 people say they are coming to my exchange then I will assign 3 days each to each woman.  Then we all make 8 copies each of the 3 different days we are assigned (8 rainbows, 8 apples, 8 keys).  THEN we all go home with a complete set of homemade Jesse Tree ornaments for Advent!!  FUN!!!  The size should be not larger that 2".  Sculpy and felt seem like the mot popular mediums for the ornaments--but I have also seen decorated glass balls.  Go to pintrest and see what you can find.  Let me know by October 30 if you want to participate so I can Assign days!  See you all next Tuesday at Stacy's for our regular meeting!!!

More Prayer Please

Sorry to be a prayer hog, but they're desperately needed.

My brother-in-law only has 50% heart function and they say it wont get any better. They've also told him he will not be able to work and they gave him a 5-6 year life expectancy.

My sisters and I have just started this novena; maybe you could join us. The mood in my sister Lauren's house is heavy, obviously. They all need prayer - the biggest being conversion of Terry and trust in our Lord.  Their children are 10, 15, 17, 20. Two of them are my Godchildren. Thanks.

Halloween Party Plan

Hello Everyone,

We would like to invite you all to our Homeschool Halloween Party on Friday, October 25 at 1pm.
We will have a costume contest for kids (and moms, too, if you want to dress up), outdoor games; weather permitting, pizza and a bon fire.  Hope you all can make it.

The First New Englad Christmas Tree

HI there everyone!!  I neglected to remember that this past Friday when we were with Jesus in Adoration, we were in union with hundreds of thousands of other children around the world!  It was International  Children's Eucharistic Adoration Day!!!  YAY!!  I will try bvery hard to remember next year and advertise it in the bulletin.

It is that time of year!!!  Time to cast and practice the Advent Play!!  The play this year is about 10 pages long and has 7 characters, though I can add more young children to the family as interest demands.  Also there can be more townsfolks if I need more older kids parts.  But as it is printed, here ia the cast list:

Mistress Harcus, mother
Jamie, her crippled son
Cynthia, her little daughter
George, her oldest son (really!)
William, her second son
Neighbor Warren
Captain Harcus
Elder Hopkins
Villagers

There are three scenes, the last one being Christmas Eve.  We end with a carol, which will be a perfect segue into our Advent Carol Sing along!  SOOOOOOO  who want to be in it??  I would like to rehearse 3 times before the Party, and a dress rehearsal in the early afternoon the day of the Party.  Maybe someone in west Bath  or Woolwich can host 2 rehearsals..cough, cough, hint hint.....

Getting excited!!!!  Can yout tell?!

Flying Colors!

Thank you all so much for your prayers - God heard them!

My brother - in - law made it through surgery (seven hours of it which was brief given what they did) with flying colors! If you don't mind, keep him (and them) in your prayers when you think of it for faith in the heart now that the heart can pump again!

I'm so grateful to all of you for your prayers as is my sister who is still walking around in a bit of a daze.

Thank you all!
