A cooler than normal and wet April is being predicted.  Let’s hope they are wrong.  Potatoes are supposed to planted on Good Friday.  That should be possible this year.

Thought for the week:  In Japan, broken objects are often repaired with gold.  The flaw is seen as a unique piece of the object’s history, which adds to its beauty.  Jesus pours out His love into our broken places – our pain, our mistakes, our fears, our failures-  and fills us up with Him until we are whole.  Better than gold!

Have a great week!
